Questions and Answers:
Q: Can the track go under the path?
A: If you can find room to fit an underground tunnel, then go for it. Please change no terrain other than lowering the ground in the location of your tunnel.
Q: It says that the clearance above a pink-bordered area must be at least 15 ft. Is that track clearance or support clearance?
A: Nothing may be less than 10 feet over the paths. Please all, take notice that the heigh has been changed from 15 to 10 feet.
Q: Is terraforming allowed?
A: Since the coaster is being built on already existing land, no major changes to the terrain will be allowed. You may lower it slightly for trenches or tunnels, however.
Q: Can we use 3 cars per train for a realistic S&S ride?
A: I'm going to stick to the rules this time. The influencial S&S for this contest is J2, which uses 4 cars/train, which is still extremely fast paced with 1.6 pacing.
