Cool Shockwave - SFGAm

Here is my re-creation of Shockwave at Six Flags Great America. Everything is basically accurate and smooth, the only problem is that the corkscrews are a bit rough. I couldn't get them completely smooth. This is my first successful coaster recreation.

Oh yeah, if you change the track color to red, this *magically* becomes Great American Scream Machine at Six Flags Great Adventure!! Cool, huh?

I thought this was a pretty bad recreation of shockwave.It is very messed up compared to the real thing.

I don't know, I've ridden Shockwave tons and tons of times, and I thought I got everything really close besides those damb corkscrews which seem like they melted. I'll admit its not that great though.
