Hello, fellow coaster nerds!

I'm relatively new here.

I have started working on a new coaster called Zeus. As one or two may know, I'm doing this project called The Gods Of Greece. Please watch these two videos to see what I mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HsJ2UyxLqU and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eduz0E5E4cI&feature=response_watch

Right now I'm working on the second in the series, Zeus, an Intamin hyper coaster.

I can not tell you the height or speed of Zeus yet because I'm not that far into it.


Please note:

NO- It will not be another typical Newton coaster.

NO- I am not a complete n00b, but not a master, so do not expect improper supports or the smoothest coaster you've ever seen.

YES- It will be fully hand-built, which I am proud of.

YES- It will have terraforming and 3ds.

Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Mr. Moon didn't preach to you about The Twilight Zone? Man, he REALLY ripped you off.

Why does the track do a little waggle and right bank at the top of the hill after the first turn?

Attitudes like that are not going to get you very far on this site.


To critique, the element in question just seems to add unnecessary lateral force, so you are going to need a better explanation than "because I want it to" if you are going to sell me. If the hill had a purpose, such as scenery interaction, than it would be justified, but as it stands...again unnecessary. However, the other portion of track seems to flow pretty well.

Because I think it would be a fun element. It adds (at least to me) an extra little pop of adrenaline.
