Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin

Is it worth it?

Yes, if you love classic dark rides or have kids who've outgrown the gentlest Fantasyland rides. It's goofy and fast, with more energy than Disney's slower dark rides.

The catch: you no longer control the spin. When the ride came back from refurbishment, Disney automated the cabs' spin movements. Anyone who rode before that could turn the car themselves. Now the cab turns to face the big scenes, but at other times it can leave you facing backward. That disappointed a lot of longtime fans.

Skip it if spinning makes you sick, or if your Toontown time is short and Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway matters more to you.

About Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin

Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin is a dark ride in Mickey's Toontown at Disneyland Park. It's based on Who Framed Roger Rabbit, runs about 4 minutes and opened on January 26, 1994. You ride a spinning cab through a slapstick chase. A December 2021 update made Jessica Rabbit a detective trying to stop a crime wave in Toontown. The ride closed for Toontown's 2022 rebuild and reopened with the land, so older tips about steering your own spin are out of date.

Insider tips

• Look at the queue walls. The license plates on the wall inside the entrance are jokes about Disney characters and films, such as 2N TOWN, 101 DLMN and CAP 10 HK. Decoding them helps pass the wait.
• The Key to Disneyland Lock Station is right across from the ride. If you're doing the key scavenger hunt, Toontown's station is directly opposite Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin. Use your key there while someone else holds your place in line.
• Expect to face backward sometimes. Riders have reported long stretches facing the car behind them. The big scenes seem to be programmed so your cab spins toward the action. When you're facing the wrong way, look over your shoulder so you don't miss the gags.
• Watch for the Jessica Rabbit detective scenes added in 2021. They're the newest part of the ride, so they're worth looking for even if you've ridden it before.
• Ride both Toontown rides in one trip. Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway is also in Toontown, so do them back to back rather than crossing the park to come back later.
• Lightning Lane: as of November 2026, this ride is part of Lightning Lane Multi Pass. At Disneyland Resort, Multi Pass is a paid add-on, and its price changes day to day. You can't make your first booking until your ticket has been scanned into a park that day. After that you book one ride at a time, in the Disneyland app.
• Check Disney's refurbishment calendar before your trip. This ride has closed for refurbishment more than once, and it was shut for the whole Mickey's Toontown rebuild. Confirm it's open on your dates instead of relying on an older trip report.

Who can ride

Height: check the posted requirement at the entrance or Disney's current listing.

Intensity: this dark ride has a medium level of motion, with twists, turns and spins. Your cab spins automatically, and you can't hold it still.

Motion sickness: if spinning bothers you, keep your eyes fixed on one point or skip this ride.

Young kids: the ride is cartoony and silly, but it's dark and loud, with villain-chase moments. Very young or sensitive kids may find parts of it startling.
