Honorable Mentions for Maverick and Raging Bull.

I don't have a list, but Maverick, Millennium Force, El Toro, and I305 are some of my favorites.

Maverick for violence, Raging Bull and Apollo's Chariot for the straight part, Raptor in the back for the really awkward floaty whip thing

I think my favorite first drop is Expedition GeForce in the back.

In no particular order: Iron Rattler, Millennium Force, Fury 325, El Toro, Intimidator 305, X2. All very distinctly different but uniquely incredible drops, IMO.

My favorites are probably the first drops on Apollo's Chariot and Raging Bull, particularly in the back of the train. Having a little speed as you hit the drop can give a ton of airtime. For a straight drop off the lift, I would probably have to go with Millennium Force with a long, steep drop that just keeps going.

The best first "small" drops: Candy Cane-like coasters! Those of Little Dipper come in second!
The best first "big" drops: Intamin Accelerators! (That descending part is counted as a first drop!)
