Just a heads up

I'm making a recreation of Maverick. You are really going to like it, everything so far is great. I have the breaks, station, the exactly 20* lift hill, the 95 degree drop, and the curve at the bottom. No pics yet, but you will like it. I might need some rocks 3ds help.[approve]

I tell you Tiepilot:you're going to have a big 10 from me....eheh
Maverick is going to be a world class coaster and I love the layout.
I'm waiting for some pics but unluckily I love building objects but I'm not good with rocks![:D]

Minor update: the speed is right (57 mph), the hill is exactly 20 degrees using the JRuler Pro, same with the 95 degree drop. The only issue im having is i pull like -1.6 at the peak of the lift, is that okey, i mean thats prolly what you'd pull anyways in RL. tell me your opinion.

I would have to guess that it is probaly way too strong, but then Intamin has built El Toro lately...

Im getting around -1.6 to -1.7 which for a brief moment is completely OK. Its even within the ASTM standards because its so brief.

Plus remember, it has those Intamin OTSR's which, if youve ridden Storm Runner, they can handle some INTENSE airtime. I dont think El Toro (minus that twisting drop) has as crazy air as SR does down to the actual numbers, however, it does hold them much, much longer than SR.


I think its totally within reason and as I suspected, that drop in back seat will have some punishing airtime.

Yea I'd say anything around -1.6 is acceptable, as long as it's not sustained (which it's not, or shouldn't be). This is also partly the reason for short trains though, gives better control of G's but screws over capacity.
