Well if you had read my post in the B&M Floorlesses thread, you would know that I only recreate their layouts, not their exact heights and speeds. There's three reasons why I do this:
1. I'm not good with making BIG coasters on flat terrain. Give me a mountain or something to work with and voila, it will look good.
2. Its foolish to try and recreate coasters in RCT to their correct height and speed because the heights and speeds are already wrong in RCT.
3. There's always too much straight track. Since the lift hill on a big coaster like Nitro is so long, the bunny hops on the return trip would have to be extended, with straight track between. I'm sure that on your recreation, however, you probably did that lift hill that alternates between low grade lift and high grade track, which IMO looks ugly.
Personally, I like these small recreations since you can easily fit them into a park. They're just so simple, too.
P.S.- SFMM DUDE's post didn't count as a reply, Dark Luke's did, so one more and I'll release Intamin Megacoasters. A themed version of Apollo's Chariot will be coming later today, too!
