Impressive work, Marlovious! I had not seen such a good Old Aperture COOP since... Electrophobia. But how about some music? So, here's some tests:

That's why it's a WIP. I need suggestions.
edit- wow you totally broke it. I guess there are a few things to work on then.
More info! The thin parts of this prop aren't solid, you can walk through them - potentially getting stuck somewhere:

Unconnected rails are scattered everywhere: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc12 ... -24-38.jpg I wouldn't be suprirsed if Valve did the same though.
The grate on the funnel isn't solid, you can fall through and get stuck: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc12 ... -39-87.jpg
In the finale, it is extremely easy for the player who gets there first to just portal his friend without using any funnel or button. Just look at the amount of white surfaces in the previous part he can snipe to: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc12 ... -56-38.jpg
This particular corner could look more functional: as in, a place fit to drop the cube. When I first saw it, I thought it had an unaligned ladder heading straight into a wall for no reason:

More importantly, check that you can't actually climb in the box racing slope yourself! Another problem I had in there was that after solving it, I didn't get how to bring the players back to the hub - so just killed them outright (odd, since going to the actual end of part 2 triggers another death).

Yes I realized after seeing the first video that none of clip's I put in are working. I'm compiling an update right now.
I want xdiesp to test out my maps when I release them - great bug/exploit hunting there. 
I'm playing custom maps and record my first time of playing them. So the run is not perfect and may not use only intended ways, but maybe it can let you see how other people may understand the map or you could just enjoy someone playing this map for entertainment.
Anyways, here is the recording:
