I'm well underway with supports for this double launch X-Car. It's gonna be uploaded sometime in the next few days hopefully, but I thought I'd post a few pictures while I made some final touch-ups, to raise awareness. Name courtesy of texaspilot35

P.S. Six Flags Northern Lights, my other current project, is still in progress and probably will be for awhile.

It's decently long I guess. Not very long though.

I finished more piping work. The supports are officially all done. I'm gonna upload on Sunday most likely.

That deep element looks really cool - are you going to leave it open air or dump a load of soil on top?

Just a quick one, try adding a flange to your first support beam it will then look like a connector instead of a random beam attached to the track. great work tho :D i had that problem it took me over a week to support mine, bellow you can see my Coaster Hydro Cannon and then Gforce at Drayton mannor hope this helps!

At this point I'm not really sure. As of right now, the plan is to keep it a deep trench with a small pond in the basin that I was going to fill with swamp flora. But I might change it to a concrete tunnel. I guess we won't know until I release it =|

Gonna upload this tonight hopefully, to kick off the weekly. The weekly still starts at 12:00:00am Sundays right? To whatever the website clock is? Anyway, everything is almost done. I just want something in my portfolio completed from NL2 so I'm not going too above and beyond =D I still think you guys will like it. Here are some final overviews.
