Join us as we celebrate the Cars 20th anniversary and 100 years of Route 66 while we recreate the original Cars research trip the Pixar team took 25 years ago. @jofranco, travel content creator, is taking the wheel as we make our first stop in Galena, Kansas to visit Michael Wallis, Route 66 historian and the voice of Sheriff in Cars. Next, Jo heads to Rock Café in Stroud, Oklahoma. Along the way she picks up the director animator on Cars, Bobby Podesta, to talk early animation tests.

Disney & Pixar’s Cars is racing back into theaters September 4. And watch the Cars Collection now streaming on Disney+!
