ThunderBlast-Launched megalooper

Here's my latest coaster, a huge launched 4-across twister with 5 inversions and 5,115 feet of track. It features a 62 mph launch up a hill into a weird first inversion 150 feet tall, and then into a fast, wide turn reaching speeds of 78 mph. The ride also features: 130-foot tall vertical loop, a high 270-degree turn, a zero-g roll, an immelman (something you don't usually see on non-inverted B&Ms), a corkscrew, and lots of twists, turns, and tunnels!

The G's get a bit high in spots (in the corkscrew, and every few rides I see some red in the first inversion and the loop, but most of the time there it only gets into the yellow in those places (odd). I think it's survivable. )

Ah well, aside from that I think it came out pretty good. Like all (or most) of my coasters, I tried to make it smooth and realistic. Please download it and tell me what you think!

Wow, that was sweet!!!!! Incorperated the twists and smoothness of previous works with good g's and speed. It was especially good in the back.

That was cool - nice and fast. It wasn't as good as your other rides, though.
