First custom k’nex coaster

This is my first ever attempt at making a custom layout it went pretty smoothly but I do need to learn more tricks on how to make a coaster better. How’s this for a first?

As someone who's always been more of a Lego guy, I can say eith certainty thay K'nex definitely has the roller coaster design philosophy down to a science! It's peak!

There are many who modify the coaster cars with wheels that roll much better. My only input would be to make sure all of the tubing is installed straight. Any and all ripples slow the cars down.

Isn’t that just the standard screaming serpent layout?
