Coaster Dynamix makes the most realistic roller coaster model kits that you can buy. To date, all revenue from models sod has gone right back into the company to help improve their already fantastic product. They need our help in raising $50,000 in order to start a full production run. I've already pledged my $35 for the launched coaster model to put on top of my desk here at home. If you've got $5,000 to spend you can have them custom design and build your very own working roller coaster model! Make your pledge today.

We've had many suggestions pour in about what new features should be added to Roller Coaster Tycoon 4 (if or when it ever comes out) as well as what was liked or disliked about Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 (RCT3) Listed below are some of the best suggestions from our readers:
- Paths which can curve (not just square corners)
- better UI interface and controls
- Remove lag and lock the game at 30FPS
- Add catwalks and realistic stations to the coasters - more realism!
- keep the onboard camera mode
- More roller coaster types!
- Be able to add an extra train on a rollercoaster without closing the attraction
- More diverse park guests - different heights, weights, etc.
- Realistic supports
- More themes and themes from existing amusement parks
- Sit down restaurants
- More realistic track construction - can drop at any angle
Do you have any more suggestions or ideas for RCT4?

How does a Zamperla Demolition Derby work?

Can anybody here explain how a Zamperla Demolition Derby ride works? From my understanding there are two turn tables which spin in opposite directions and the cars, which are free to spin in their own independent circles, are transferred from one turn table to another. It's the "hand off" between turn tables that specifically interests me. How do they do it? This ride system is used at the Disney studios park in Paris as Cars Race Rally. A new twist on the design is being built at California Adventure as Mater's Junkyard.
