IMO the tower dosen't look any taller than what you have to climb for a regular speed slide, an people does that lot's of times. Also the tubes for blaster slides have coming along so they are nowadays not any heavier than regular tubes. I do agree that a conveyor belt would have been good though..
The only thing I could complaint about is that I would have liked to seen different Ferrari colors on the ride. Yellow supports and red track would have been better IMO.
Nigloland have had some nice seasons now and for 2016 they are adding two drop towers. One from Zierer for the kids named La Tour des Petits Fantômes and one from Funtime for the adults named Le Donjon de l’Extrême.
It will be a rather impressive installation for this park! It will be Funtime's...
The 4th level is done! Comparing height and level ratio to KK and TTD this one should have 7 levels in it's structure, but since it's a new design that might not be the case.

Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg Project 2017
I would say the park needs another big high quality family coaster. Busch have been known for adding similar rides to the two parks, so it's not entirely unlikely the park will get something similar to Cobra's Curse.
They do seem to hype it up a bit...
I wonder if we will se it twist on the way down like KK and TTD does or if it will just be a 90 degree twist?
The plan could have been to not have a KK-style drop tower on the coaster and instead going for a launching tower experience similar to Mystery Castle on it. It would fit better with...
There's most likely a reason for it, I would think that something needs to be able to pass beneath it. It's still weird though that they wouldn't raise the track immediately after the descent for a bunny hill into the brakes.
Also the ground looks a bit uneven, it could just be that as well.
Some great new shots!
I'm a little bit surprised that they are using unpainted steel beams as opposed to the brown ones on Outlaw Run. The same goes for the one at Dollywood. Perhaps it's a capacity issue at the manufacturing?

They have a really nice buffé and one of the coolest drop towers in the world. But all in all the place is pretty crappy. They have made many misstakes in adding rides IMO. Both the spinning coaster and the invert could have been much better rides, imagine something like the spinner in BonBon...
