Three stations! Load, Unload, Clean Seats!

Yet another thing to chew on... While the top side of the track (the side the train will travel on) is not going past vertical, but simply twisting, the outside rails of the box track, are in fact, hitting anlges past 90. This box track illusion may be why it looks like the drop is past vertical. It's because the outside has to compensate for a train diving through the middle of an invisible tube, for which the track wraps around.

Remember, at such high speeds, if the track was to twist on its lateral axis, that is a true spiral, the train would end up being spun as if it was on the end of a string, and the force on it would be outwards, meaning that you would feel intense negative G's while twisting. The train is the thing that twists along its lateral axis, not the track. The track merely is arranged so that it compares to the Zero G rolls of some ride i forgot, which is enclosed in some tube thing.

but imagine if it were twisting, then ended up inverted, and you had a tophat inversion 400+ feet above the ground. that would be awesome. but i much prefer the air time feeling at the crest of a hill. now imagine that feeling 400+ feet up.

Any ideas on what the station and trains will be like. Are there station and train parts on site? Where will they be located? How many? How big of a train? How many trains?

Wicked Twister is a great ride! Just because it looks simple soesn't mean it sucks! I wouldn't mind having it in my back yard!
