Very nice. Are the crystals actual lightsources,
or just glows? And how about applying some
sine-wave intensity along the animation, or
shifting colors?

As for the carts: the kids will drop out of those
carts! How about at least one metal bar, maybe
some vertical ones, which won't block the view,
but at least look like somethings actually there
to keep riding personnel from falling out?

Shaking is much better now. Having two
carts was a great idea. Now add some
people waving when it goes downhill,
and release the code for everyone to render
his own 10 minute rollercoaster ride! :-)
