Minecraft Roller Coaster 1

Taking a small break from my statues, I felt like building something else. When my friend Phait, the user who runs the server I go on, had problems with his internet connection, I decided to challenge myself. I created a new offline world for one sole purpose: to build the largest Minecraft Roller Coaster ever constructed by mining all the required materials myself (not by world editing). Luckily, the world I created happened to have an abundance of iron in its caves (not so with gold, which is the only thing I needed to inventory edit, because 6 gold bars only make 6 powered rails). Now, although it is far from finished, I have decided to post my progress here. So far, the entire coaster clocks in at over 70 seconds, which is good so far considering all the powered rails I put on it (just in spots where it was needed, normal rails are used everywhere else). The spot I took this picture from is the only spot I could make both areas of the coaster render well enough. Maybe eventually I could triple it's current size, but for now this is what I have. Not finished, but good so far. I'll probably try to think of some cool name for this coaster too.

Note: Yes, there is a small piece missing in between two tracks at the end. Explanation: I fell and got mad, so thats when I decided to take the picture.
