ryno1986 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I believe on Sunday I guess they installed new brakes or something to one of the break runs and I heard if all testing went well after that the soft opening could be this weekend. But I'm not sure if everything went smoothly. I just hope the soft opening is SOON. There is currently no opening scheduled or planned. Any rumor of a soft opening is false.

Homeboy23 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I think you won't have to worry about October. I'm guessing early part of September as the latest. But, they are a chance of something else happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgodsey Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 My contact there is now saying they are gunning for HHN. Other than that they are considering legal actions on the manufacturer and the contractors they are so upset at this delay. I know a big law suit could kill little ole' Mauer Sohne so hopefully they will get the issues worked out quickly and calmly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pianojohn Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 For those of us Orlando folks who remember, Test Track was scheduled to open in May 1997 but didn't officially open til March 1999. So, 4-5 months delay is not the worst we have ever had to wait for a new ride to debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Starr Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 For those of us Orlando folks who remember, Test Track was scheduled to open in May 1997 but didn't officially open til March 1999. So, 4-5 months delay is not the worst we have ever had to wait for a new ride to debut. That's what a lot of people have forgotten. Robb has posted this many times in this thread, yet people complain. It's a freaking roller coaster. It will open eventually. Until an OFFICIAL announcement from Universal, no one should believe any estimated softs or openings from undercover sources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hercules Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I will be there the beginning of December. Although I would really, really, really like to ride it considering this will be my only trip to Orlando for a long period of time, it is just a roller coaster. Life will go on if it isn't open the day I go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justint87 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I was at the park today and did for the first time see it test in person, however they were only running one train. On a side note, I think the banner looks great. In person, seeing the size of it and how it blends in with the theme is beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
