Its one of the oldest rides and is definitely a signature ride at the park. Many people still actual like rough wooden roller coasters too. If you are going to tear a ride down it should be the Hurler. That ride hurts way worse than Thunder Road.

I'm born and raised in Charlotte. So many historical things are being torn down, from the JIF billboard, to the Goodyear Auto Shop uptown. Do NOT tear down this coaster. Its the staple of the park's history. So many memories from middle school

I loved this ride and hope they'll reconsider. It's an iconic ride that is known far and wide. Don't tear down history for a cheap profit. Keep it classic.

This coaster is much more significant to more people than maybe the Carowinds powers that be know. I'm not sure who they are polling to come to the conclusion that a water park ride should replace it. I have a Gold pass and I don't use the current water park. Thunder Road holds a lot of nostalgia but it's also an important landmark in an area that tends to not hold on to many historic landmarks. Most importantly, even after all of this time, it's a still a unique, exhilarating and very fun ride. If you make any changes, bring back the backwards ride option.
