Roller Coasters The Hurricane - RMC topper track hypercoaster

[Lithix]

Hello everyone,

I've been busy building this lately and I thought I'd share it and see what you guys think.

This is a topper track RMC (Mostly wooden rail + supports with a steel rail) hypercoaster. If built it would be the tallest RMC by actual height and drop height, the longest RMC coaster, the fastest RMC coaster and the RMC coaster with the most inversions.

This coaster features a Zero-g-stall, two Zero-g rolls, a dive loop, a heartline roll and a corkscrew. I've often struggled with pacing coasters so I've made sure this one stays above 30 mph for the majority of the time (i.e. excluding the brake run, lift hill, pre-lift hill section etc.)

Estimated cost: $30-50 million

Constructive criticism is very welcome as I don't actually ride coasters IRL (although I do a lot of research instead). I hope you like it!

Bump, would really appreciate some feedback on this.

I like it! There are some rough/unsmooth sections tho. Also, it is maybe a little bit too long for an RMC coaster. They are usually pretty fast. Other than that its very good.

I was about saying the same thing.
The roughness and the length of the coaster make it unrealistic, not because any of this coaster type that exist are shorter, but because so many rough turns,ups and downs for 3 min...well, that is closer to torture, [haha]
Peoples wouldn't enjoy the ride.

Thanks for the feedback! which turns are rough/unsmooth? I made sure the g-forces were within acceptable limits (see stats page).

I agree it's very long, I know the most common complaint about RMCs like Outlaw run I hear is that they are too short so I wanted to make one that would be considered much longer although I agree it is probably too long.

Yeah, some RMCs are pretty short, but they are also very intense. Generally speaking, the intenser the ride, the shorter it is. About the rough sections.. I found only the first few turns before the lifthill and the last section with the barrel rolls a little bit rough compared to the rest of the coaster.
