Yeah, its just a drill launch. Also, I guess I did my scaling wrong. One unit (A granite rod) on this coaster is 15ft on the real coaster. So, this will roughly be about 4 feet. This will hopefully be made automatic by using a snap switch and a relay. Also, I was trying the launch with a weighted train, and the chain did shred! I laughed so hard!

Well, I just thought that a few of you might be interested in viewing this. I am making Xcelerator at Knott's Berry Farm out of knex. The scale is 1:15. I have been making coasters for a very long time so I definitely have the skill. All i have done is the launch right now. As you can see, the launch is at a slight angle just like the real thing. I even did some math and discovered that if the launch was real, the it would do 135mph in .4 seconds! :o The launch The angle The hinge I used And even a test video! So, Tell me what you think! Also, The images are huge for some reason. I tried to resize the on PhotoBucket but they stayed the same... So, Sorry about that...

^ Yes, That is what ScreamScape said.

Wow, does anyone know how much money those are? I now know what to ask for for Christmas! Really though.... I want one... I will get one...

I have to say Great Bear at HersheyPark. It looks sweet, ecpesialy with the helix before the drop. The best part of the ride was by far the helix, which was'nt very exiting either. I know it hasn't gotten anny hype or anything, but it just could have been so much better.

Yeah, it would make sense to split them up, but this is like once in a life time thing. I mean, Maybe over the next few years I will go to the other small parks and stuff. But just CP and Gadv are like amazing so... yeah.

Just wondering, Is there an age limit? Sorry if you have covered this.

Ok thanks guys. I was thinking that we would drive. Also, We would probably stop at dorney so it wouldnt be straight shot to Gadv.

I would pick Dorney over Hershey, due to the fact that I was there in September. It really is an amazing park though. My original plan was Carowinds, KD, BGE, SFGadv, then CP and possibly KI. But, I shall take the others into consideration as well. If we can't raise enough money, we will hopefully have enough for CP and Gadv.

Well, a friend I are going on one huge trip next year. (Well, at least for us it is) Its basicaly any parks we want to go on the East Coast of the U.S. For us, the must go to parks are Cedar Point, and Six Flags Great Adventure. BUT, We can only go to about 5 or 6 parks, Where should we go. We can easily go to Carowinds BTW, so dont include that. This will be sometime in the summer of 2010. Oh, and we live in Atlanta so thats out starting point. Thanks! -Pyro-
