Could I ask a favor?

I'm planning to make an extremely accurate Corkscrew on NoLimits for Coastersims. I wanted to know if anyone here could provide me with a bunch of pictures of the area and if anyone could provide me with more subtle details (station length, angle of lift hill, height of corkscrews etc.)? I want as much detail so I can make the track as accurate as possible and the 3DS as accurate as possible.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Coasterimage and coasterbuzz may have some pics you can use.

Goodbye 2005 season!!!!

Click Corkscrew under the rides section on this site, a little info in there. Check around and you will eventually find what you need. Good Luck.

From everyone on the CP&LE, RIP Mayor Scott...~

Thank you. I found some of what I needed. The drop out of the station is what I really needed.

I have a good idea {my 1st one}, you should download the POV video from http://cedarpoint.com/public/fun_online/video_dl.cfm. Just to make sure you get all the turns and stuff.

Goodbye 2005 season!!!!

Thank you. Does anyone know if I can get an picture of the layout?

The first webcam at cedarpoint.com could help a little?

Yes, I have the area from the station to the lift hill done. The only thing is that I haven't gone on the ride in about 4 years. I just wanted to ask one last question, does the the train leave the station with friction wheels or with gravity. Thank you for all your guy's help.

I think wheels and then the small drop but im not sure. I'm going tomorrow and if I ride it I will try to look. *** Edited 6/22/2004 4:54:02 PM UTC by Ary***

I dont think there is wheels but I will be there tomorrow so I will check

If you think there are advancing wheels on Corkscrew, you really haven't 'screwed that much.

I'm almost positive the station track has a slight angle that rolls the train out of the station using gravity. I know Iron Dragon does this for sure but Corkscrew I'm not sure.

Off topic but the ride's new paint looks great and the ride is a little smoother this year too. I enjoy it now.

Where can I download NoLimits so I can make my own coasters? I've seen pre-made ones, but I don't know where the program is for making them.

Smoking Marijuana isn't a bad thing or even a good one, like everything else, its what you make of it.

Corkscrew does not use advancing wheels. Just like all the Arrows, gravity takes the train out of the station.

I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,

Sean, you can download NoLimits at: http://www.nolimitscoaster.com/. Keep in mind that the free demo does not allow you to saye your coasters and that you will need to pay for the full version to get all features. However, the full version is only $25 and you can download it as soon as your order is processed. I have it and it is well worth the money.

Alright, thanks Paul.

Well it will be a while before it matters dearly, corkscrews are in my opinion, difficult to make properly. I'm just bearly getting off of the lift right now.

I'm sorry to bring back this topic, but could anyone here tell me the lift speed? Thank you.
