The very first roller coaster I ever rode. Back in 1985 we would always get seasons passes. My dad would always have to place his arm across my chest to keep me from flying out. My daughter is 5 now. Please do not destroy this Carolinian landmark.

literally the first roller coaster I went on as a kid. It was my besties idea and began my love for coasters. While it needs updating TR is still one of the most enjoyable rides in the park.

This is a classic roller coaster that means so much to the life long Carowinds goers. Please don't take down one of the iconic roller coasters there!! Why don't yall buy some of the land surrounding the park that's used for hunting to make additions. At least leave something that's antique!!

This and the lazy river are the only reasons I still come to the park.

Not only does this coaster have nostalgia, it is also a different kind of rollercoaster that you do not see a lot of anymore!

I've been riding TR since it opened in 1976. Racing coasters are a rare breed. Needs to be saved!
