Yes, a lot of newer ride systems do use the RFID tags to count laps on specific vehicles, and you can even view the counts right on the controls. I would imagine that this is less important at Cedar Point given the way they strip down the trains every off-season, but I don't know if the annual maintenance would influence the decision to balance out the usage.
