) as she says various comments. After the lift hill, riders then travel down and around Toon Lake. Near the end of the ride (the fastest turn), riders pass in-between a figure of Chip blowing through a straw with Zipper, and a figure of Dale holding a cup as Chip attempts to shoot water above riders' heads into the cup.

Tokyo Disneyland Version

The Go Coaster has the same cart design as the Disneyland version. Guests board a train fashioned from acorns and scavenged parts.
