Well done, theisaac. Keep it up!
Thanks to all the ones who voted on my Scarlet Kingsnake & gave me feedback on the track layout. Based on your feedback I did some little changes to the track considering removing all the three brakes which lead to unnecessary slowdowns. Of course, the block brakes haven't been removed so that the three trains still can ride independent from one another. The improved track layout will be published as soon as the actual download will have been deleted.
Yours

I should have honestly gone with my gut lol, I'm very pleasantly surprised my favorite of the round won. Great win and coaster theisaac!
@BlazingEmpire - Truth be told the closest round we've witnessed was the tie that both your Caution and my Parthax were involved in lol

I really liked the idea of the ride; needs to be a real ride

I think that gannet was an ok coaster. It is really good compared to other NoLimits 2 coasters I have seen, but some of the transitions were a little bumpy, and I feel that the track wasn't really special, except for the neat dive-wing concept. There was a lot of cool theme objects that could have been added. The track was ok, the concept was great, but I could not find that special something about it. Good terrain editing too.
Congrats, nonetheless. I am hoping to enter in a NoLimits 2 track soon, and I like to see the support people are giving NoLimits 2 recently on this site.
