Thunder Road is a dual-track wooden racing coaster that utilizes two parallel tracks for simultaneous operation. Following a shared ascent up a chain lift hill, the trains plummet down a series of symmetrical drops designed to create brief moments of weightlessness. The layout follows an out-and-back configuration, incorporating a turnaround and multiple airtime hills on the return leg. The ride concludes with a straightaway into the final braking system as the tracks converge toward the station.
