Lake Conroe Cyclone

Yet another woodie from me(at this point it might not surprise you to learn I prefer wood to steel.) This one's got a Cyclone-style layout with some surprises. Not as intense as Lucifer's Hammer, but still packs quite a punch.

Hmm... not too bad, but I think I liked your last one better. The turns on this one are kind of slow, but I guess that's how they are on a lot of the older woodies. The layout is kind of predictable but still compact, giving some good head choppers (I almost thought one of them might have been a bit too close!) It's also pretty smooth, not quite as smooth as it could have been, but it is a wooden coaster, after all. One problem in the last turn, it's too close to the ground! The crossbeams/ties go right through the track... and this is of course not good! Whether you are using Woodbuilder or Woodzilla, you have to make banked track at least a few feet above the ground, otherwise there will not be room to bank the ties (or whatever they're called), since they have to go a few feet to either side of the track... I hope that made sense... Well, anyway, pretty good coaster.
