Is the ride “The Claw” a pendulum which obeys Simple Harmonic Motion (Dreamworld)?

simple harmonic motion is characterised by a lack of resistive forces(amongst other things e.g. restorative force is proportional to distance) , without a driving force(from some sort of motor) “The Claw” will eventually slow to a halt because of air resistance, friction in the axle etc.
