Technology is advancing every day... If someone wanted a dueling / racing impulse bad enough they could research & develop more efficient LIMs.
Didn't S:TE used to simultaneously launch? Or was it always staggered? ----------------------- www.tripowered.com
I have seen it simultaneously launched.
Although not in person, I have seen B&R: The Chiller simultaneouly launched on video that was shot during the 2 partial days it operated in 1997.

I think nasai has a good idea that we'll actually see materialize before too long.
As for the problem with power, if a park wants it done, it will get done. Just a matter of who wants to give up the money.
Thanks Chris! It is a good idea, huh? LOL! --------------------- www.tripowered.com
I had a similar idea back when S:UE was being built. It was the same concept, except for it to fit into this park I was doodling, the trains didn't launch straight towards eachother, but at more of an angle, like around 30 degrees or so, so it made like a v shape, with the twisted spikes at the point. ----------------- If the shoe fits, find another one.
Ravenguy, that sounds cool too....same thing I guess. The trains could come to a stop at top, and still be really close to each other. It would be cool to be able to toss a hat to your buddy or something. Of course, you would get tossed out of the park. (No, I am not saying that is a smart idea:)) or a little handslap at the top.
