still low on the height, the speed is just about right (at 152.25 mph). The vertical loop is just above 300.

The actual stats are:
  • 223 meter [731 ft] Highest Point (84m taller than Kingda Ka)
  • 245km/h [152.25 mph] Top Speed (5km/h faster than Formula Rossa)
  • 3000.8 meters [9845 ft] Long (521m longer than Steel Dragon 2000)
  • 146 meter [479 ft] Immelmann (7m taller than Kingda Ka)
  • 106 meter [106 ft] MCBR Inversion Drop (7.1m taller than Fury 325)
  • 91.5 meter [300.2 ft] Vertical Loop (World's First Giga Loop 42.7m taller than Full Throttle)
The rides name is Prototype. A record breaker in almost every way this ride is sure to pack in a punch. Built to settle an argument I intend to prove at the very least semi-plausibility with this behemoth. It is possible. Using new magnetic tech this ride will launch riders to its top speed of 245 km/h down a track that utilizes the momentum more effectively than previously done. Here's a few more pics of progress. I'm currently working on getting the trains to behave properly.

If you're successful in proving your point, bravo. I think that'll be up for debate however lol.

I forget who I built this for, but I made a decent B&M Invert Storage thing out of supports a while ago.

personally I wasn't that big of a fan of the shed. The imperial system is so weird and non-exact compared to the metric system. This is why you see the handrails being dumb up top.

As for prototype it is absolutely up for debate lol, but my goal is to get as far to one side as possible.

EDIT: I miscalculated the final length of the ride. It will be over 10000 feet long by the time I'm done with it. yay :)
