For those of you who've been following my thread, my recreation is done! I did it from the blueprints in the back of Gee and Lopez' book, "Laugh your troubles away". It's fast, it's intense, and it's only 64' 9" tall! [url="/track_exchange/detail.asp?tid=21701"]Click here to view[/url] :D

There's a fairly extensive explanation of the ride in the description. The short version is: Yes, there's a collision between TA1 and TA3. This is because of Church's tracks being narrower than NL2s, and a bent which despite many, many hours of attempts I could not get the computer to put it in the right place. The tunnel is marked in the blueprint; I've included it for historical interest but it can of course be turned off. All heights, radius values, node spacings, et cetera are as close to the print as I could get. When there were suspicious bent heights, I cross-checked between the horizontal plan and profile diagram. When those didn't agree either, I used Excel's line graph function to get the line as close to the profile Church drew. Enjoy!




Here are some photos :)
