How can the Pinocchio water ride work?

This is a continuation of sorts of my Pinocchio water ride idea: https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads...eds-a-better-title-among-other-things.977130/.

Up to this point, my own take was to just focus on the Monstro segment of the movie, but then I was made aware of another version of this ride, which added in Pleasure Island as well. It's in this video here (skip ahead to 26:19):


The basic gist is that it will replace the Speedway and use the bright lights of Pleasure Island as a transition of sorts between Fantasyland and Tomorrowland. My version of the ride, however, will not be a water coaster, as there appears to be too many such rides in that one corner already, but just a regular plunge ride.

What I would like to know, and I did ask in the comments section of the video, but never got a straight answer, is how the ride could physically fit, especially given the upcoming Tron coaster. Here's the basic gist of the location:

I will go into more details, but first, I would like to know how, based on the description in the video, how the ride could fit, because I have become intrigued by the concept.

After some horsing with this, I finally came up with the (partial) area for the Speedway:

All told, the area is 134,972.42 square feet, with a total distance on 1,554.23 feet.

For the sake of contrast, here's the area/distance of Splash Mountain:

The area here is 101,200.46 square feet and the distance is 1,580.14 feet.

So apparently, they're pretty comparable, I think.
