Found this link semi-hidden on one of the Season Pass pages on the Carowinds site:

The benefits are a bit different this year - no Sunday ERT whatsoever, nor are there any "Two ride Tuesdays". The good news is for most of the year, there is Top Gun ERT on Saturdays.
From April 1st-May 27th, Saturday ERTs are Top Gun, Thunder Road Silver, and Scooby's Haunted Mansion. Like last year, this is from 9am-10am.
From June 3rd-August 26th, Saturday ERTs are Top Gun, BORG, and Reptar - again 9am-10am.
From June 9th-August 11th, there are also Friday ERTs on Danny Phantom's Flyers, Flying Dutchman's Revenge, Fairly Odd Coaster, and the Nick-O-Round.
That's it for the amusement-park side. Boomerang Bay has a preview weekend May 13th and 14th open only to Platinum Passholders, entry at 10:30 every day, and on Thursdays from June 7th - August 23rd BB opens an hour early for PP holders - with the water rides open!
This isn't that different than last year, basically we lost the Saturday Nick Central ERT, with the TG / TR ERT moved from Sundays to take it's place - and the mostly useless 2-ride-Tuesday was dropped. Not quite the good-old-days of everyday TG ERT, but the PP program has been handled far more consistently than that ever was, and it's for an entire hour. Plus, the one day it's extremely useful IS Saturday, so I can't complain about not having anything on Sundays.

I was just joking, Bayard.
