Instead of heading straight down, the first drop will twist sharply in one direction, then the other. That should create some potent lateral G-forces (pushing riders side to side), but will likely place a bit of a damper on acceleration and speed. Valleyfair estimates Renegade will reach a respectable--but not bugs-in-your-teeth--speed of 52 mph.
