It does look nice. How tall is this beast?
Are you using tools to contruct it? Is that a hint of heartlining I see on that turnaround?

IMO u should reduce the banking on the front turn, but the rest look very nice

Yeah, it looks like that little drop in the middle of the turnaround is at least 15+ feet and the banking on the turnaround doesn't look too sever. Should be some nice laterals right there with the banking as it is...

Thanks for the comments.

The first turnaround pulls up to 2 lateral gs, and the train really takes that turn at a pretty fast speed. I'm using four cars per train because I think they keep the pace of a 6 car PTC in real life, so the heights of all the elements are more realistic in proportion to the lift, while not sacrificing pacing.
How tall is this beast?

135 ft tall with a max speed of 61 mph.
Are you using tools to contruct it? Is that a hint of heartlining I see on that turnaround?

Yes, I'm building this completely with the Elementary, Purg, and AHG. It does look like theres some slight slipping coming out of the turnaround but theres absolutely no heartlining there. I'll probably be slipping some parts of the coaster, mainly near the end of the ride, but the first turnaround really doesn't need it at all.
