Space Shots/Turbo Drops

How much do these things cost? I was just curious, since they hardly take up any room, why aren't they at more parks? Just wondring if the price was high or what.......
i read on the S&S site(found while surfin the web)and on there it claims that their space shots/turbo drops are efficiant, good capacity, low costing, and take up little space. maybe the parks dont need one? or maybe there are height restrictions. maybe not really small, but these things are 200+ ft.
I heard that a small double shot ride costs 1 million, including installation.

At three o'clock I will be able to tell you....I have all the brochure sheets for S&S Power sitting at home. I will tell ya then!

Lagoon Park in Farmington, Utah has an S&S Triple Combo Tower named The Rocket. The Rocket consists of 3 Towers, 1 Space Shot (Blast Off), 1 Turbo Drop (Re Entry), and a third unused tower. The Rocket has a Drop Point of 185ft and had a price tag of 3 Million.

Go for the combo tower, like Scream, that's the best variety.
Cedar Fair LP reported that both Knott's Supreme Scream and Cedar Point's Power Tower each came with a price tag just over $10 million. Now, that's not cheap is it? (Well, not when you consider they're the largest of their kind)
Actually Valleyfair's Power Tower is taller (with one less leg) then Cedar Point's.
