American Eagle has a few good ones, too, particularly the bottom of the first drop.
(obviously, you can tell I haven't been outside of Great America much)

I thought the tunnel on the helix of The Beast had a nice headchopper entering into it. The best for me, however, would be the Wildcat at Hersheypark. There are some pretty good ones on that monster.

Ninja at SFSTL, its the only reason that thing is still worth riding.
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.

The one ride that always got me EVERY single time is SFOG's Great American Scream Machine. When you come flying over the last bunny hop, the roof of the brake run is RIGHT there inline with your eyes.
You can see it in this pic:

Other rides that get me are Viper, and the tunnel over The Beast's helix.
Finally Coaster Season!!

Gemini at Cedar Point. In my opinion, it's the best one.

Best headchopper would be Mad Mouse at Blackpool Pleasure Beach, if you are tall and dont duck, you will hit your head on some track while going up the lift as shown in this pic.
