4-Skyrush | 5-Iron Rattler | 6-X2 | 7-Kingda Ka
8-Voyage | 9-Maverick | 10-Monster

The only arrow coaster with heartlining are probably tennessee tornado (great ride) and X. All the other ones were built using the track as the center of gravity.

I am not on my regular computer, but i don't remember it being any more than 4.0 g's. The radius is about equal to that found on Great American Scream Machine's first drop.

They went bankrupt soemtime between 2001 and 2002. S&S power bought some of the assets including the Four dimensional coasters design. Owners of Arrow rides now contact S&S Power for support.

Revised the second half of the ride. It now has a bit more between the mcbr and the corkscrews to make an opposite entrance into the corkscrews. Also new photo released that shows the cut back which provides hangtime in every seat.

I finished more support work yesterday after about 5 days of getting nothing done.

Check the NLDC Page for pics of the new supports.

The loop looks like it needs to be filled out more at the top; otherwise, the profiling looks alright.

The loops are supposed to be more like these two.

I have named it venom and repainted the track green and made a car texture. It should be released this sunday.

Why does that matter. Vortex and gasm which this is largely based on both have double loops which were built different than anacondas loop.

Well it's okay for now,a good start I guess. You have some pretty horrible shaping issues in the loops and the batwing, take a serious look at pictures, as they're WAY off in your ride.
