First Coaster with a on ride photo?

im willin to bet it was pretty much all of the Arrow megaloopers of 1989 that featured the onride photo...i.e.Viper at SFMM, Shockwave at SFGAm(i think that one is 1989), and GASM at SFGAdv...i could be wrong....

ROLLERCOASTERS....BETTER THAN OXYGEN BABY!!!!!!
does anyone know why SFMM got rid of the on ride photo on Viper for a few years.  They reinstalled them about 3 months ago, but they were disabled for a year or two.  Why the change?

Six Flags Magic Mountain is the place to be for top notch thrills in 2002! X is the ultimate thrill machine!

The OLD on ride photo, was not digital. It requred an empolyee to constantly switch through the pictures just to find the one you were looking for. The pics are nore much more high quality, and SFMM doesn't need to have an employee their.

Not MLK's words but mine..I have a Dream! I have a DREAM! I HAVE A DREAM!
I have a dream! That SFMM fans will be able to walk hand in hand with CP's!
AND no ONE cares what a coaster is and what a coaster isn't!

Ahha something else I know about, the very first company to do on ride photos is called Hot shots imaging. the very first pictures were no where near the quality you see today, but they did use the same monitors they do today. Also the pictures were a lot smaller, than the 5x7's they sell today. Another interesting tidbit, Cedar Point was the first to have the Key Chains of On-ride photos. I actually met the lady that came up with the idea and came to Cedar Point with it, the company she started has done On Ride Photo setups all over the country.
all I gotta say is OH.....hehe
