Lochness Monster at BGW looks pretty good, atleast the loops. Can't think of much else at the moment.

I thought I thought Millennium Force was the most impressive coaster that I have ever seen. Especially when you drive right up close to it. TTD was also a close second just because my mom's reaction when she saw it on the causeway and then when she went up close to it launching.("Holy s***")

Oooh add Thunder Dolphin to the list. You've gotta love those inner city coasters.

I guess I would have to say Screamin' Eagle because it is quite big and weaves through a nice setting. This picture is probably only 10% of the whole ride.

Here come the complaints. Deja Vu is second. Yes, it is not your HUGE coaster, but it's such a cool ride, that impresses me everytime I go to the park. Even if it is closed for the day, it is one nice piece of artwork to look at.

You see I like the cubs and the white sox. If it came down to the world series I'd pick the cubs.

The Boss just amazed me with how big it was when I first saw it, it just looked gigantic from Batman's lift hill.

Riddlers Revenge really stands out to me, as does Dueling Dragons.

/\ And the fact that to a lot of people monster wood coaster are visually intimidating, or at least for me compared to steel coasters.

I think Goliath looks really cool, especially the pictures of the entrance, with the drop in the background. Also a big woodie that looks impressive (yet really sucks) SOB.

Son Of Beast is quite the eyecatcher from PKI's parking lot.
Other coasters I've found visually appealing are: Raging Bull, American Eagle, Shockwave(not to start anything), Great American Scream Machine(SFOG), Kumba, and Face/Off(just because of the bright colors
)
Finally Coaster Season!!
