And next year it should look something like this!

Is Huss out of business? They still have a website: https://www.hussrides.com/ I always heard parts were an issue too but according my to it: ”HUSS® provides a first-class after sales support service to clients anywhere in the world through its Huss Parts & Service GmbH company. Many of the HUSS® attractions are still in operation up to 30 years after first beginning their working life and service and spare parts are provided around the clock for all those rides still in operation.”

I believe cars will no longer be touring the Safari and revert back to the SORA trucks. The difference this time seems to be that those that only want to do the Safari and not the theme park can access the trucks from the Safari entrance plaza. The glamping tents in the rendering look very close to the catering tents in Camp Aventura. I would expect the new area to take over those facilities.

I think it is likely that with the Log Flume reopening in 2024 and the Safari Off Road Adventure trucks being re-added next year, BOTW restaurant will make a return.

Both of these upgrades should be quite extensive. I suspect the Giant Wheel will be totally dismantled, cleaned, and repainted with an entire new lighting package and refurbished cars including possibly the introduction of the long missing cars redone. I don't know if the Log Flume will see the original color scheme (red and green) but the entire turntable is being refurbished with new sub structure and decking. Also it is probable the trough will be relined and new conveyors installed. It's the perfect gift for two rides celebrating their 50th birthdays!

No, same area different building. https://www.greatadventurehistory.com/FireballExpress.htm

Opening up Dream Street? Removing the Paintball Building? Memorial bricks?

Maybe the 180 means it will be an inverted super boomerang!
