Jul-15-01, 09:18 PM (EST) 2. "RE: A Simple New Reversing Loop!" For piece No. 7, you may want to try these settings. I believe it creates a little smoother joint.Length:
Start = 0.000
Middle = 2.980
End = 0.000First Curve - Enabled
Radius = 100.040
Angle = -1.541Just ran the loop, and it was a lot smoother.Thanks for the loop.Lawrence Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Jul-15-01, 09:56 PM (EST) 3. "RE: A Simple New Reversing Loop!" Perhaps that would make it smoother. Actually, I've only drive over it one time so far!Also, I meant to say that you could easily add straight sections in between the curves if you wanted to make the loop bigger.KingJPW Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Jul-16-01, 07:09 PM (EST) 5. "RE: A Simple New Reversing Loop!" Cool. Feel free to add as many as you want! I just wish we had a 'yardright' track section so we could make a right hand reverse loop!KingJPW Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
