Iron Outlaw - RMC Multi-Launch Concept Coaster

This coaster was my entry into the 2015 PA-Community contest, I decided to post the ride here due to the very poor fps/stuttering in the video on the PA-Community channel.

The contest was to create a ride that would fit into the the line up at Thorpe park, I decided to go with something fairly unique that had been floating around in my head for quite some time now, a multi launch RMC coaster.

I chose the I-Beam track on this instead of the Topper Track simply because since it's a concept/a would-be prototype, I feel that the I-beam track would probably hold up to the forces of the launch and such better than the topper track, and since it would be a prototype, you would play it safe.

I advertised this as the world's first Launched wooden coaster. While the I-Beam RMC's are usually considered steel coaster, this is Merlin we're talking about, the same company that tried to advertise Thirt13n as "The scariest experience imaginable", so I would believe they would try to advertise something like this as a wooden coaster.

I feel I could have done a lot better with the track work, this coaster was one of the last ones I made in FVD using my old method/before I got better, so I'm not a fan of how a lot of the transitions came out

Thanks to TallonD83 for the car textures.

Please ride & rate.

Honestly, I think the second half felt sort of redundant - it didn't really do anything different than the first half, and isn't as good. I would have rather seen it just end, or launch into one super-intense/different signature element - like a figure-8 double inclinded loop or something, or even just a really fast ground hugging terrain section.

I took Projektions stealth coaster and pushed the thrills to the MAX!

The tophat pulls -1.8 to -1.9 gs and the brake run is very very intense.

The launch speed was upped to 84 MPH.

Here is a video.

I can't give a full review because I am at school for the semester and can't access No Limits, but I'll give you a quick pointer. Make sure that the first element after a launch is the slowest element at the top. If another element ends up going slower than the other one, a missed launch could result in a roll back on the slowest element and cause it to valley. If that happens, it has no launch to shoot it back up. I can't tell from the video if that is the case, but it looks like a potential problem.
