I'm starting work on a model coaster with the same split lift as Knoebel's Twister. I haven't been there since it was built... Is the motor for the 2nd lift raised up to the base of the 2nd lift, or is it on the ground? Any pics would be great! Thanks :)

Thanks gator! I think your right. Judging from the extra bents ... Looks like there isn't much clearance there between the top of the 1st lift and 2nd..
There isn't. The lift motor for the second lift is at the top. I have a picture of it somewhere in my archives.
