Description: What Will You Make?

Let's say you became a roller coaster designer. You can create anything! Problem is, there's a lot to choose from! This topic allows you to create your own roller coaster. Part of being a roller coaster designer is building with the track that's already out there. The other part is creating your own. Same goes here. You can choose from any track out there, or, create your own. Once you've got your track, let your imagination run wild and build beyond you're wildest dreams. Once you have your layout, explain it as best as you can. Keep in mind though, You can't make it so wild that guest wouldn't be able to ride it. So in other words, unlike Extreme Makeover Roller Coaster Edition, it has to be realistic and guests have to beable to ride it. Now, that you have your layout, put in the statistics. This is what you NEED to put in:

Height
Speed
Max. G- Force
Intensity
Excitement

The Intensity and Excitement go on a scale of 1-10. You HAVE to make these things realistic (For Example, you can't have a ride reach a height of 30ft. and go 100m.p.h). Figure out the G-Force as best as you can, but again, it HAS to be realistic (For Example, Don't make a ride that's 200ft tall and have a drop of 90 degrees and goes directly into a 50ft. loop and say it's only 1 G-Force).

Now, Create a name for your roller coaster. After that, set a price for the roller coaster

Next, predict which park would buy your roller coaster. Use park statistics to help with this (For Example, If you have a wide spread roller coaster that makes it easier to go through foliage, Bush Gardens Williamsburg would be a good prediction).

Finally, create an advertisment for your roller coaster. You can say what ever you want. It would be a good idea to make it catchy and highlight the big parts of your coaster so people will want to go and ride it.

Some helpful hints:

1) Parks rarely go over 5 Gs
2) The current world record height is 458ft.
3) The current world record speed is 128m.p.h.
4) 8-10 on the intensity scale might be too intense for some guests
5) Six Flags Inc. is in major debt

Good Luck & Have Fun!!!!!
