I've always wanted to make a Prowler/Renegade style GCI, but until now I've never gotten around to it. I want to make this thing realistic, so I having never ridden a GCI myself I have to ask how these things ride. How strong are the lats on a GCI?

Hey, if we're doing an SFMM meetup next week, I may as well be a part of it. I'm going to be at the park either next Tuesday, or the following Wed/Thurs.

Sorry we hijacked your thread, Tyler [lol] I suppose I might as well answer your original question: the only 2 GCI's I've been on are at Hershey, and I was too busy listening to my sister complain to notice the forces. Sorry...

On Apocolypse, The Forces Are pretty Strong. Of course, the forces are stronger in the back. They are strong, but not CCI strong. also, make sure to have ejector in the back seat during the drop, have the quick pops of ejector in the front seat GcI is know for (mild ejector in back), and be sure to have a lot of twists and crossovers.
