Rolling Thunder is a twin-track wooden roller coaster featuring a symmetrical layout designed for racing. Each side utilizes a traditional chain lift hill to reach its peak before descending into a series of airtime hills and banked turns. The structure is composed of classic timber supports, and the trains utilize standard lap bar restraints to secure riders. The course layout follows an out-and-back pattern, crossing over itself at multiple points during the circuit.
