I was just browsing the Bobbejaanland website and remembered that they have an airrace suspended coaster. Vekoma right? I think the little airplanes make it a really cool ride. Anybody else want to comment on rolling stock design?

As far as looks go, I think those Hypersonic trains look mighty fine. On the other hand, B&M Speed Coaster trains are great as far as functionality. Not to mention they also look good, too.

I'd say the Bat's (PKI) or the Vampire's (chessington) trains look very cool. Of course, Hypersonic's are damn fine too.
The Dueling Dragons trains kick.

Definetely Dueling Dragons... They even make the front harnesses pink to resemble the dragons tounge!

Worst Coaster: Project Stealth
GCI's Millennium Flyers...they just look so sweet, and not to mention, give a smooth ride.

Coasters...the best natural buzz available.
I doubly agree!! I'd been secretly hoping for years that they'd reintroduce that style. Hat's off to ya GCI!!
Also, I must say that the original morgan trains from the SCBB Giant Dipper looked really cool (from the 70's and early 80's). The nose was streamlined. Very unique. I also loved the stock from the Schwarzkopf Jetstar...(or any other early Schwarzkopf rolling stock)....

I agree with Jephry, the Intamin Hyper/Giga trains are awesome.

It's not cool looking or anything, but @ SFGAm, the Whizzer has really neat trains. It is an early Schwarzkopf coaster, and the trains have little seat belts in them.
THey are neat....

For appearance the old NADs with headlights. So camp they're great. For function Intamin hyper trains, smooth and great exposure.
I agree with kcies13-SFGAm, the Whizzer's rolling stock is cool. It's open, only a seat belt, and the inline seating is different, quite nice when with your girlfriend (or for you girls, I guess it would be boyfriend.)
Second best would be Apollo Chariot's and Raging Bull's, and I belive Nitro is also a B&M hyper, is it not? Those things rule, the big T-bar, which is easy to keep loose, the open sides, not front "wall" to the car, the confortable seats.
They would be the best, only it has B&M's (seems almost like it's trademarked) 4 across seating, which really limits vision in the center. It's not as bad on that coaster than on others, like thier inverteds. Those suck in the middle. Rode middle of Batman: The Ride once, never again. Only edges! BTW, front car on Batman=heaven!
Ever? NADs.
Now? Probably GCI's Millennium Flyers.
Wolf, if "Ever" is to me, yes, I mean I will never again, in this live, or my next, ride a center seat on a B&M inverted. But I don't need to worry, I am thin enough where I squeeze through the rest of the people in my group and get in front of them, therefore making sure I have an edge seat. Although, if that seat is closed, I'm screwed if I don't notice before we go on it. If I notice, I can make my way to the back of the group.
I like Aplpengeist's trains.
