Rattling Rails-Wood Twister

A new wood coaster, supports created with Tia's Woodbuilder 0.9.7 program... this one is relatively small, but still intense. It has an 83 foot lift hill, 2,582 feet of track, and a top speed of 48 mph. However, the track has many tight twists and a few unexpected drops, and it maintains its speed through the whole ride. This is a little bit rougher than most of my other NL coasters, but that's part of the woodie experience, right? It's still realistic and ridable (sp?)
If you haven't downloaded NL wood coasters before, be advised that they may take a while to load in the simulator, and the framerate may be slow in spots on slower computers.
Have fun!

Pretty good!!! I need to find a different rating scale for woodies, as I consider them and steel coasters two seperate branches, but this was fun. IMO, your G's on a woodie don't need to be as strong as on a steel, as long as it's fast, and this was. Sweet first drop too. The only things I'd change are
1. Have more sudden direction changes near the end
2.A few more pops of airtime would be nice
3. Dont use intamin track & trains on a woodie. The track is closer to woodie track, I know, but the trains look horrible.

Other than that, this was a great coaster. Hope to see more woodies from you soon.
