Tyrannosaur Attack: Standup

Yet another new creation by me... this is a very twisted standup coaster with 4 inversions and some more weird support stuff (like Treetop Explorer) like fences... This ride is not too large (3,476 feet long, drop is (I think) about 112 feet) but it has a twisted layout and the speed doesn't let up. Like my last coaster, this one is surrounded by dense trees. This one is smooth and realistic, like I try to make most of my coasters (I think I did a better job smoothing this one out because it's shorter than most of mine.) So, please download it and post your comments here!

Thanks

hmm... this review sounds familiar

smoothness=10(it was smooth)
speed=7(a bit slow in parts, but it felt like it was going slower than it was)
supports=10(properly supported the coaster)
g-forces=2(far too weak, only went into the yellow once)
rideability=10(no ultrapainful laterals or negatives, no decapitations.)

therefore overall-7.8/10

Well, thanks for the review. But you and I seem to have a disagreement about how G-forces should be. Sure, people can survive 6 Gs, but there are plenty of coasters that have a maximum G-force of 3 or 3.5, and they are still exciting. And I don't think G's should be too high on standups.... but of course, that's just me.
Ah, well. Thanks...
and please download this if you haven't already!
