5 Hours of Power V - Panic

Panic (the temporary name I gave this thing upon reading the rules, and then didn't have time to change) is my not-quite-finished (but still submitted, in shame!) entry for this year's 5HOP competition. While I managed to (mostly) finish the track in about 4.5 hours, that left me about 20 minutes to support and 10 minutes to frantically package for upload. Oops. So, the supports are godawful (significant portions of the structure are entirely imaginary), as are the operations (needed that MCBR a bit earlier in the ride in retrospect). But hey... the track's... pretty fun?

Enjoy, or shred to nitpicky bits, you know, as per tradition. Cheers!

• Minimum 5280 feet (1609.34m) of NORMAL track must be built within the blue boundary.
• Only normal track may be built within the blue area.
  All brakes, lifts, launches, transports, stations, transfers, switches, and storage tracks must NOT be built within the blue areas. NO part of these segments may touch or enter the blue boundary.
• You can build any type of track segment outside of the blue area, including normal and special tracks.
• Your coaster may be as tall as you want.
• Storage track sufficient for all trains required
