Most Roller Coasters will accelerate due to gravitational potential energy being converted to kinetic energy on the coaster car after being gained from a hill lift.

There is no way of controlling the acceleration due to it completely being acted upon by gravity. Different types of track; car design and wheel bearing will affect the acceleration slightly.
