Yeah, I'd assume Gerstlauer. Eurofighters are perfect for this contest.

thanks for tellin us how to win XD

That is not how to win. Eurofighters lend themselves very well to extremely compact rides, but so do spinners, x-cars, wild mice, and intamins. For that matter, so do S&S rides.

Zierer...?

Ding ding ding ding ding!

You picked that just for it being obscure, didn't you?

[slosprint]

Perhaps...

Iam going to try this micro coaster contest out as my first ever contest coaster iam thinking this is going to be quite a challenge. I could do with a little help on uploading the track once ive completed it, i have just this minuite joined coastercrazy and havn't got a clue on how to upload my track......please help !!!

[slosprint]

Have you ever designed with NL before?

Edit: Ok, it's turning out like a mix between Wicked and Formule X. Should come out pretty cool.

I'll give the contest a go

I'm glad that so many people are entering, but I just want to warn you:
This isn't the best contest for inexperienced designers. I have more than a year of experience with NL, and making an example track has been a real challenge for me. Unless you're making a woodie, you will absolutely NEED to know how to make custom supports.

Either way, I believe you need to make 5 QUALITY posts, such as yours, before uploading. In other words, no spamming. The FAQ should tell you how to upload. Other than that, take your time making your track and uploading, since you have a whole month. However, be prepared that since there seem to be a bunch of entries, including some from really good designers, it is unlikely that your ride will win.

im in if its still possible....

Hey, omni...i'm a little bit concerned about my station building roof. It has has to stay at the width it's at (which is not wide to begin with) but it might be a slight bit past 10 ft. on the edges of the template. Can I show or send you the track, just to get some pointers - I don't wanna be DQ'ed, even though it's unoffical. And what you get may be NOTHING like what the real track will be like, but you never know. [;)]

2.Any track style can be used, including wooden coasters.
All track and supports must fit within a 100 ft by 300 ft rectangle. This includes footers but does not include station buildings, fences, and lines.

I sorted through all that stuff in the beginning while on my iPod touch just for you tidus

ok... I guess my design is an X-Car now...

Don't be an ass, thanks. And I was actually wondering about this:

The station must be between 2.5 and 10 feet in height, and may not exceed 10 feet from the edges of the template.

Not what you gave me, I sorted through all that stuff in the beginning while using my brain just in case you pulled a "meta" on me.

dude, i wasn't trying to be an ass, thank you

second of all, i was trying to be helpful, and I'm sorry if i wasn't, but you really don't need to flame me for it, jeez

Gazag's nicked my idea...

And you took my idea... [V]

Make Sloshprint's micro coaster in my Jamp Up Land park.

Sounds good to me. So it can be a shuttle coaster, right?

How is my Jamp Up Land Going for Sloshprint?

[slosprint]

... "Sloshprint?"... I haven't gotten to work on it much yet. I will get it done at some point though.

What do you plan to add besides the flesh meat stand?

Dose anyone have tips on makeing good loops? Mine always look squished on the top.
