A Change of Seasons for me, all his work on that track is brilliant. Another Day and The Best of Times were good options as well.

Where the hell is Bombay Vindaloo??? One of the best solos ever. If you have not heard it before, you NEED to do it instantly. This reply comes from a music lover with more than 2000 albums experience. So, trust me and do yourself a favour.

A tie for me between Hells Kitchen, Under a Glass Moon and the Best of Times.

My favourites:
A Change Of Seasons
Blind Faith
In The Name Of God
Octavarium
Voices
The Best Of Times
The Spirit Carries On
Goodnight Kiss
I chose Octavarium, simply because it's such an epic point of the song and the feeling you get once it's over. Just amazing...;

For me, John Petrucci finest soloing is on Under a Glass Moon and Lines in the Sand.
I'll go for the underrated track from Falling Into Infinity.

Under A Glass Moon for me... though it was a tough choice with Hell's Kitchen and Lines in The Sand...
Also Bombay Vindaloo is one of the most boring jamming from DT... Sorry...

I cant remember them all well, but my favorite might be in the spirit carries on. From the list I think voices is the best

I don't understand why This Dying Soul is not on the list, it's one of JP's most impressive solo's. Anyway voted for Fatal Tragedy - a preety nice solo as well

the most elaborated solo is the solo from under a glass moon, but the most beautyfull for me is the solo from Hollow Years live at budokan

I generally find Petrucci's solos overly metal and pointlessly difficult but not in a prog way but The Razors Edge is wonderful.

I know exactly what you're saying... every time I finish that song I have to take 3 or 4 minutes of silence afterward to take in all of its awesomeness.

Well, DT is a metal band. What do you expect? 
Anyway, I voted for Goodnight Kiss. I find this solo very moving.
