TowersStreet Planet Coaster Speed Build Contest 2024/25: Week 15 ends 28th February

For the length, is it track length or traversal length?

That’s actually a very good question that I’ll admit I didn’t think of!

I’m going to be harsh and go with track length here, as if I’m being honest, I think track length was more what I personally had in mind. I litmus tested the round beforehand, and I know it’s possible to build a 4,000+ft long coaster within the constraints.

That is a good question, though; thanks for making me think!

'mingo wanted a B&M Hyperia. B&M told them to eff off with their budget.

Bankrupt in 2004 but back from the dead for some reason, up steps Giovanola.

Edit: oops, thought it was max height 150ft, not minimum. Will start again as can't make it taller without going over budget

So that's Jungle Rumble, my Round 15 submission! I hope you like it; I normally try and go somewhat realistic, but I think the round constraints made that a bit difficult this week, so I decided to try something a bit more wild!
