Built to check that you can build a strata coaster that is rideable. It turns out, no larger pieces are strictly needed and peeps will ride this without cheats ... which is actually quite silly.

According to my calculations, this thing would pull 36G if the G forces were calculated accurately, but the game says the positive G force is 6G. This is convenient, because it means you can build a strata coaster with existing pieces, but it's also bad, because if those extra large slope pieces were added, they could result in implausibly low G forces. The game's G force calculation is very broken.

Also isn't this the Rollercoaster in Six flags great adventure?

It's very similar, but a bit smaller (and different colour obviously)
