A.J. Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 This is my second NL coaster posted online. It's called Sideswipe, and it's a GCI. It's a coaster that could be affectionately referred to as the "mini" GCI. It only stands 70 feet tall. It's designed to give thrill-seekers their fill with more NINETY-DEGREE turns than you can count on one hand, but it's also a coaster for younger (or older) riders to ride as their first "big" coaster. An overview of the entire ride. Small, huh? Compliments and/or *constructive* criticism is welcome. Sideswipe_mini.nltrack Take a ride on the "mini" GCI!
DBru Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 This was a very decent 2nd coaster. I enjoyed the compacted layout, and your forces were good for the most part. It was also fairly smooth. Next time, try not to use any transfer wheels on your wooden tracks. Slightly slant the station downward, so that no transport device is needed. Also, on a coaster this small, you do not need two trains. (They were stacking on the lift hill for quite a long time.) I would just use one train, and add 2 more cars to it so that it carries 24 passengers. Overall, nice coaster. I'm excited to see more from you in the future.
