Kinda went with a "family" ride kind of Woodie with this one but it ended up a little more intense I would say. It was inspired by the new Quassy coaster and I tried adding a different style to the ride too. The layout might see a little weird and the ending I might go back and redo. Supports are based off Fireball and Boardwalk bullet. I'm doing all custom supports on this since it's a little small. Some stats:

17 instances of airtime (anything less than +.25 vertical G?????????s, average front/middle/back seats)
Top speed of 39 mph
Height of 70 feet
High lateral forces approaching 1.3! lol
2,280 feet long
One double up
One tunnel under the station
Two crossovers


That's all for now here is some pics

Need to fix up some of the ledgers, they look a little long.More lateral bracing will be added also. That's all for now!


I need a few name suggestions too so if you have any good ones please suggest. Thanks!

(I might actually finish this one)

Awesome. It reminds me of the types of coasters that I enjoy making. I get OCD with the supports usually, but I like yours. I would like to test the track and see how it feels.

One side of the layout looks great but I can't say I'm loving the 2nd half.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Yeah, sorry, I'm tired. I was too lazy to see if you said you wanted to test and went by the other guy's comment. [lol]
