I went to the May 22, 2017 Cars 3 Road to the Races event in Cincinnati, Ohio today... I had a great time... I'm really glad I made a reservation that allowed me to go straight in - otherwise I'd have been waiting 2 to 3 hours to get in and I forgot to wear (or take) a hat.... Here are my pictures from the event along with a few from Cars shopping before or after the event as well as a few photos from the Cars 2 event on April 1, 2011.
The lines were long:
I love the rims on Cruz Ramirez:
It is the Road to the Races:
The sneak peek of the movie was in this trailer:
The Lightning Berry Smoothie was really good:
You could make Cars from the posters:
Jackson Storm was cool... and not just because I was in the picture:
One of the workers said these life size Cars were worth $1 million each - I have no way to verify that.
I liked Dinoco Cruz:
and my buddy Lightning McQueen:
At the Cars 2 event in 2011 they took our pictures using their cameras... this year photos were taken using our choice of cell phone or camera... one picture taking device per group... and I might have been the only one without a child or grandchild with me.
More of my pictures:
Now I know why there was a Coppertone Cars 3 display at Walgreens and maybe other stores... Coppertone helped sponsor this:
Jackson Storm is cool... Did I already mention that?
And I like Dinoco Cruz Ramirez a lot:
I have no artistic talent so I didn't do the street art:
Another view of the theater trailer:
Nice Cars in the display case:
The good news is I found an end cap at 1 of 3 Target stores... the bad news is it only had case A singles - I wanted to find case M.
1 of 6 Meijer stores had 15 of the Meijer exclusive Pop! Vinyl Primer McQueen!
I found Todd at 4 of 6 Walgreens stores:
along with Caramel M&Ms:
I wore my Cars 10th Anniversary shirt for the first time:
Clutch Foster was a Meijer find... got the other 3 at the only Toys R US I stopped at:
Todd-terrific finds from 4 of 6 Walgreens stores:
I had a great time... the sneak peek from the movie was excellent... I can't wait to go see Cars 3!
