Different Weather, Different Ride?
Because I've only been on the Force once during the heat of summer, I'm wondering, how much of a factor does the weather make in the ride? Does the ride 'feel' different in the Spring time than during the summer? Just a curious mind inquiring the people...

In the very beginning of the season, the trains are fast, but not too fast. At the end of the season, after a summer of getting broken in, the train are cooking. I was just incredible to see the difference last year. I went June 2 and August 20. The trains looked fast in June, but they were just smoking in August.

Millennium Force is definitely a better ride during July and August than in early June. I've experience the same type of difference on Superman: ROS at Six Flags Darien Lake. I guess the Intamin hypers/gigas are a bit more tempermental than others. I'm not really sure how it goes when the weather starts to cool off as I've never ridden it then! :)

When it's cold, the wind kinda goes against your face and it kinda burns and it's cold going up(refers to last Holloweekends) But when it's hot, and your pretty hot from waiting in line, you cool off! hehe!

Ever since they started mixing wheels, I've found that the ride is pretty consistent from ride to ride, regardless of weather or time of day. I was shocked how fast it was on Joe Cool mornings on the first few trains out.
