Where are you planning to fly in to? Time of year? There are a boat load of parks on the east coast that are an easy drive to each other. I imagine you'll run out of time before you run out of parks. If you can do mid to late August a lot of parks are still open everyday, but also a lot of schools are back in session. Definitely helps with the crowds. If you'll be in NYC the Cyclone is running great these days. Wonder Wheel is also pretty cool there, but nothing else overly exciting ride wise. Cool place to visit though. The Jersey Shore is also quite a scene at night, but once again not the greatest coasters.
Here is a list of coaster events, some you need to be an ACE member, others events you can be a member of any coaster club (some are free or dirt cheap). Might be worth checking out if the timing is right.
