It bet its more than twice as fast as MF.

Millennium Force goes at least in the 70-80 mph range around that bank. IJ:ST top speed is like 40 mph, so I hardly think it will be faster than MF.

MF's first turn is taken at about 90 mph.

ha MF rocks my socks, and it does go around 90 into the turn, IJ will be going half that fast

Does MF have explosions, helicopters, sound effects, machine guns, headlights, fishtailing cars, effects that make it feel like its going downstairs, does it travel through a cityscape, and most of all is it at THE #1 RANKED SEASONAL SMUSEMENT PARK ON THE PLANET EARTH!!?? I think not.

Actually, considering the top speed is about 100 mph at the BOTTOM of the first hill, the speed in the first overbank would probably be about 50 mph. Still faster than IJST, but IJST overbank is alot tighter than MF's, so IJST's would probably be more intense.

How intense can it get with a '3'?

Point made, point taken.

It could be a medium speed ride where riders may encounter unexpected changes in direction and/or speed during portions of the ride. THis ride requirers uppy body control.

Yes, it's at the #1 Ranked Seasonal Amusement Park On Earth.

What do you mean "tighter"?

[UncleHenry]

The MF turn takes up a LARGE amount of space, which means the force of doing the turn is spread out over a much larger area. You experience more force on MF's turn, but that force is spread out more, whereas IJST's turn will not have as much force total, but it will take place in a less amount of time and space. So it all depends on the force/time ratio on how much force you feel at that instant.

This science moment has been brought to you by Uncle Henry.

Yep, the cars have to change direction quicker (time wise and track wise) on IJST. On MF, the train may be going faster, but it also has more track in which to turn. That turn does look pretty fun!
