Roller Coaster Kits?

Post by wellOKthen »

Even though I have completed my roller coaster, for future reference, what kinds of kits, if any, have worked for you guys?

Um , frankly to say, NONE. There's no good kits out there. Building your own is sooo much better and I haven't seen any kits that can even match the roller that me and my partner built.

there's this paper kit that seems good. I'm not telling you to get it, im just subjectively seems appealing from my biased point of view. Its really colorful and its made of paper so u can squash it down with something like a leafblower to transport to nats

I don't believe it is legal for nationals though.

I don't believe you are correct.

It should be legal as long as you make it your own enough for the ES to be satisfied, however, I don't think the kit is good enough to get top 20 at nats anyways.
