General tips:

Small bag of spacers and trim included in a larger bag that includes all Connectors and Gears.

Orientation of blue and silver metallic Connectors that make up the 3 dimensional connections is very critical. If a Rod or Connector is not fitting in properly, make sure that you have the 3 dimensional connections around it oriented in the correct direction.

In order to make the curves and turns in the track carefully duplicate the direction of each black Cross Tie and the angle of the flexi-Rods as they are attached into the Connectors. See page 40, step 59 as an example.

As you add the black Track Connectors (Cross-ties) and Tubing to the track:

  • a) Be sure to place the black Track Connectors right over the dots on the rigid gray and clear/white flexible Rods. (See the blue circle on page 36)

  • b) Put Tubing in the center connection point on the black Track connectors only on the hill under the Chain. Make sure it starts and ends exactly as indicated. (See magnification pictures on page 45).

  • c) The track appears to switch sides in some places as you start the twist after page 40, this is an optical illusion because the ride takes the car upside down at the bottom of the hill, as a result, be sure to maintain the proper orientation as you attach the Tubing.
