Universal Studios Hollywood's upcoming Fast & Furious coaster isn't normally covered here on themeparX, but I found what I believe to be a new rendering of the ride:

Fast and furious coaster update.
Added themed Construction walls

New power up cafe in universal studios hollywood upper lot. Replaces half of the new york area.

I remember seeing some leaked concept art of the new Universal Studios Hollywood hotel being built right on the hill where that old Chinese restaurant used to be. Might anyone still have those images?

Photos from last week. Surprised to se a big pile of dirt on the FnF site peaking above the walls on the upper lot.

Photos from last week. Some refurbishment going on with the New York Street Façade near the entrance.

New information via the NBCUniversal Community Line--the coaster will be host two trains when dispatched with each train being able to contain up to 16 passengers. The coaster will also be incorporating state of the art incentives to cut the curb on sound emissions, including sound halfpipes, controlled spinning for the coaster, and a sound wall to block off the audible screams.
