Whoa! Is there a better picture of it?
I guess they decided the loop-de-loop would have been too much.

Seems to me you are riding the rail whether you intend to or not! On both sides of car.

Re: Different type of track
I guess it was just a matter of time.
I am intrigued by the "loop to loop" comment above.
Many models being CADded out in my head...
If you hit the "previous" button they had some pretty nice car designs also (like the Pizza slice... YUM).

Re: Different type of track
I am not sure that I would like a track like that.
It would be hard to make sure that each car has to travel an equal distance to the finish line.
That last drop would really make the cars fly though.
