I heard it could be till July 4th until it opens.

Now this isn't official or anything but I also heard that during a test run on Wednesday the brakes didn't work all the way and the carriage came crashing into the pavement damaging the seats. This would explain why the carriage was taken off.

Could have happened before that section opened for the day. And I'm not saying it came crashing full speed. The brakes just didn't stop it completely.
 
RE: Mäch Tower

well they had a pretty aggressive schedule initially. But this i why they do testing. It's not like Moser has never made these before successfully. This isn't even the tallest one they make. They'll have it figured out eventually. That's Ok with me because I can't go to the park for a few more weeks anyways (still recovering from surgery).

This is somewhat of a prototype ride for them being that the entire ride carriage and catch car are a new design.
 
RE: Mäch Tower

Not really, It's the special fx that are new to moser. They SHOULD have the drop tower basics down. Here is a tower at Tivoli world and it doesn't look much different from MT

RE: Mäch Tower

Well, they've never had a carriage that rotates so they had to redesign it to an extent, along with having to modify the catch car to compensate for the extra weight.
 
RE: Mäch Tower

So here it is! Mach Tower....in pieces.....on the ground.

And for giggles a photo of me really pissed off about the water cannons at Pompeii....:D
