The two highest points in the ride (aside from the lift) are the first overbank, the turnaround. This thing is built for speed.

Sounds like Intimidator 305, at least the built for speed part.

Jarsh wrote:Uh, no. The ride will have an underground tunnel like Afterburn that the secondary entrance axis will pass over.

The ride is as follows:
Leave station, pass transfer/storage area
Lift
First drop and overbank occur in the bus parking
Low speed curve to the left over to the main entrance axis
Overbank hill / speed turn to the right at the current drop off area (going over the new main entrance axis)
Overbank hill / speed hill turn to the left (going over the new secondary axis)
Climb up into overbanked turnaround at the corner of the current handicapped parking area
Drop out of turnaround and into a tunnel under the new secondary axis
Overbanked hill / speed turn to the left (exiting this element over the new main entrance area)
Big airtime hill (exiting in the current bus parking area / bottom of the first overbank)
360 degree helix (180 degrees up and 180 degrees down)
Airtime hill over first drop
Banked turn to the left
Airtime hill under lift
Banked turn to the right
Hop up into brake run
Turn into station


Can someone make a No Limits recreation of this?


My recreation is very similar to what Jarsh described. It is just in the Centurion colors. Sadly, I no longer have this model, so I can't change the colors.
