Hey Guys.

This is the 5th coaster in my Sky Series, it's also the tallet. It's a Dive Machine, 174 ft tall, 2 inversions and reaches a top speed of 66mph. I Didn't build the coaster to be capable of holding the huge 8 across Dive Machines cars, but I don't think thats such a bad thing. It holds 5 trains at most. This is also the first dive machine to have a Dive Loop rather than an Immelmann.

The track is alreaddy finished and I'm adding scenery, then having a video made, I would just like to know what you guys think so far.

I can't really tell, but does your dive loop have a gradual slope up, and then a snappy roll like the real thing?

Well that's kinda sorta what makes a Dive Loop.

Also, Jarvis made a B&M Diver with a Dive Loop. It was actually an excellent track and the Dive Loop was also a success ( http://www.coastercrazy.com/track_exchang ... ?tid=11208 ).

The track looks, meh, above average. Good to see a new layout, but hardly any quality B&M Profile Divers we see these days. Impress us, eh, Interpol? [;)]

Maybe look at the formule-x POV video that hyyyper uploaded to see what CalawayPark by having a quick twist at the top means, because your?????????s looks a bit slow to me and a real dive loop is still at a dramatic bank when it starts to enter the loop section.
