Well I've been working on this ride for a while now. The trackwork is complete and the supports a re finished as well but might need some tweaking as I'm currently in the terraforming process. Right now the project is on hold until after the "Party like it's 1989" contest, and when I get some 3D's help.

Here are some basic pics of the layout

The overall layout seems to be nice, albeit a little drawn-out. I have two small things that seem wrong, first is the pre-drop seems to be modeled of of Apollo's Chariot, which is different front the standard ones due to the natural topography surrounding the ride. The other is that the lift supports are put in a newer style when the rest of the ride is in an older style. On a final note it would be nice to see more pics to get a general feel for the shaping of the elements.

That first picture looks very good! But the lead in to the hill looks off. I'm no where good enough to criticize your supports, but if I had to, I would say make the lift supports a bit bigger. Also, the hammerhead looking thing almost looks like it goes flat. In any case, it looks like your modeling this off of Giovanola. It is very hard to tell, maybe put in the description what manufacturer it is based off of.

@ RideWarriorNation - which lead in are you referring to? The ride was primarily inspired by Raging Bull and the hammerheads are very similar to what B&M did for that ride.

Nothing wrong with a predrop/drop modeled after Apollo's Chariot...even without extreme ejector air or giga coaster height, it's still one of the best drops in the world because of the way it was done.
