At first glance, American Thunder looks like a classic wooden roller coaster, with mind-blowingly complex architecture rising 82-feet high over the park. But it is in fact built with ultra-modern techniques, so you are going to get that classic feel with a smoother, faster, and more exciting ride than those old wooden coasters ever dreamed possible.
