Hi folks, here's a recent coaster build: Tangle...



It started out with this, and I made this into a coaster in it's own right...



Then I decided I wanted something more substantial and kept adding until we had this...








The first drop puts you into that pile of spaghetti with legs... the second drop does a bit of tangling over the station and loops, but then puts you back into the spaghetti and for a brief while two cars dance the tangle Tango. (sorry for the pun.)

It performs at about 8.2 with peeps in the cars. There are only three cars, but it gets a good ticket price and will pay itself off and then some.
You could also make the same thing out of a twister.

(I decided just to name it Tangle instead of Mangle-Tangle.)


I'll let you guys know when I am able to get it uploaded, site's still on the fritz, but I asked about it.

(Anyone know of a good, free file host while I'm at it?)

Thanks in advance you guys!

Thx

What's "vertical" about it? I don't see any vertical drops.

Well, like I mention in the starter this could have been made with a twister.


It started out with vertical intentions. lol, but I got side-tracked. Maybe I should have named it "side-tracked".

I might rebuild it to see what kind of rating a steel twister will get.

This one gets 8.75 now.(With a few tweaks.) A twister might get up in the mid nines.

Thx
