Sesame Street Funtime Go Coaster 330, perfect lol

Any decent coaster is a $20+ lapdance. :D

Was it ever explicitly stated that I305's lift is 45 degrees or was it just assumed to be because of its similarity to Millennium? Skyrush is 50 degrees and its lift/drop profile are incredibly similar to I305 just on a smaller scale.

I propose...Death Adder. Or Anaconda. OR Nicki Minaj's Wild Ride.

Is Skyrush that steep? Wow that's exactly why riders are carried fast like in 10+ seconds! 8-)

Everywhere I look it says I305 is 45 degrees.
It also says Skyrush is 50 degrees.
Skyrush is more compact, and I never heard on lift hills going steeper than 45 degrees (yes there are vertical lifts)

Link to where it says Skyrush is 50? I'd understand actually because of Skyrush's tight fit.

^Skyrush.

And you're right, I305 is definitely 45 degrees. It just looks wicked steep.

Skyrush looks awesome! I always liked how it looks!
Hopefully next year and can go and see if a 50 degree hill feels any different to I305's 45 degree hill.

Since I always thought it was 45, I don't really feel a difference at all on Skyrush.

*cough* Magnum XL-200 1989 *cough*. Not a new obsession adding figures to names XD. I like Interceptor, it does seem like a Cedar Fair name and it fits the ride. Also I think it looks great! Haters gonna hate lol

Its been awhile since I touched this project, school, work and life in general just got in the way, but I recently opened this ride and man, I got the motivation to finish and show you guys how it came out.

So this ride will be finished soon. Only things missing is small tweaks, maybe some more scenery? Any suggestions? Something small and easy to make with supports.

So whats new?
-new entrance to queue
-small tweaks to enviroment
-make brakes look more realistic
-checked all the gforces
-fixed some supports to make them look better (rotated them to the right postition)
-added some trees (enough to still make the game run smooth)
- terrian fixes (dirt and grass)
-lowered the lift supports a bit

So I'm really close to getting my stamp of approval (scarlett Johnnson pic on the wall) :D

ALSO: the name is not final!!

Ride looks great so far! Make sure you don't kill anyone with G's or in the transitions lol. Is this supposed to be more like Intimidator or more like Skyrush?

It's suppose to be more like intimidator 305 :)
Max g forces is 4.7. And it hits that multiple times.
So it has all the problems a real Intamin has lol
All forces are in check, don't worry.
Is that too high? I think it's fine for this type of ride.

Looks great!
And really, Falcon 330, any correlation to Falcon's Fury which I am pretty sure is 330 feet tall :lol:

Except this particular drop tower is the tallest free-standing one in the world...
