  Just a brief note... I'm quite sure this:
  
  will never exist in an accolade-winning entry. It's just bad design (also your supports don't quite line up with those on the ride... small, but very easy to fix, and hard to overlook). The side friction had it too (oh, and that crashed, by the way - not a good idea to have the tight turn right at the bottom of a drop). The log flume had huge drops immediately dead-ending in turns, wrenching the riders one direction or another. This is basic design philosophy. Some of the buildings were nice. The themed... "areas" were really just painted land. Focus more on the basics, don't worry about submitting competitively.

  Twister is one of a kind. I live about an hour from Knoebel's. Great family park. And I believe it was based off the Mr. Twister at I'm not sure what park. I think it's a mirror image coaster as well.

  ^^The original Elitch Gardens Mr. Twister. They are quite simmilar except that there's a bit of a turnaround on Knoebels so that the first part of the hill is directly under the second part, it's not just a turn like this. The reason for this was that Knoebels did not have the space to fit the full lift hill, so it was split up. (That and the terrain of the spot prevented them from moving the original Mr. Twister to the park.) Returning from my tangent- the park looks ok from the overview, I would say it looks pretty good, and with a little improvement, and studying other parks that have won accolades, you could produce some very good work. If you just play the game for fun, thats fine too, if you're having fun that's all that counts.

  ^^Yeah, Mr. Twister originally opened up at Elitch Gardens. Knoebels did try to acquire the ride, but instead made their own version based off Mr. Twister. Now the new Elitch Gardens has their own Twister in Twister II.
