The movement of the caterpillar cars is based on the "Key Framed Motion"-functionality of Second Life.
Under certain circumstances (low sim FPS, low physics FPS) the key framed motion could be temporary distorted.
---(version v2)----------------------------------------------------
reduced the land impact (LI) down to 33
new mesh parts e.g. the wagons and a lot of building parts
rewritten the scripts for lower LI
---(all objects rezzed)-----------------------------------------
14 objects
63 prims
33 land impact (LI)

Have a lot fun (and don't forget the hair spray).

A very nice ride!
I was cautious when I bought this, because if it comes to a thing like this: you need to test it inworld before you buy it...
Since I couldn't find it, I only had the video to base it on, and that looked good.
So I took the risk...
And now that I have it on my land: it's one of my most favourite rides!
Very smooth, looks decent and low LI.
I can highly recommend this one!
