First Time Watching *Cars* Was More Fun Than I Expected

[@hailieedwards1933]

An interesting fact about Cars is Radiator springs is based on an actual town, Holbrook Arizona. While the people who wrote the movie were traveling, they got off of the interstate into a little town that goes through route 66 and that's how the story was created. There is a restaurant in Holbrook called Joe & Aggies and that's where they stopped to eat, In the film you can see the same restaurant. Also, the Cone Hotel is based on the Wigwam Hotel in Holbrook. And there is so many other spotting of Holbrook in the movie. I find it really interesting how nobody really knows that Cars is based on an actual place. I really like to tell people about this because Holbrook is my hometown and that's how I know so much about this. Also, at one point we used to have life sized Lightning McQueen and Motor in town as a tourist attraction.

[@xelAFilex]

Wow, that's amazing! Thank you for sharing!

[@comercole1940]

i thought it was kingsman arizona theres a wall painted with the cars franchise.

[@MrMetallix]

And maters ability to drive in reverse was based off of a resident of Holbrook who has double jointed ankles who can turn his feet around backwards

[@christiankarlkarganilla2763]

Weren't the buildings and the town based off multiple towns that were along Route 66?

The king was voice by legendary race car driver Richard petty, the crash scene was actually based on one of his own crashes. Back in his day, you risked your life the moment you got in your car and he was one of the lucky ones to have survived those days.

[@TheMNrailfan227]

It was actually based on Rusty Wallace’s 1993 flip at Talladega, hate to be that guy but you got it wrong

[@Kookygirl111]

I have a broken down 2000 Dodge Durango that I just can't bring myself to give up on because it's my last vehicle that my son got to ride in before he passed away from cancer nearly 3 years ago. He also loved this movie - in fact, Make-A-Wish sent us to Disneyland and we got to ride the rides, and even have pictures with Lightning McQueen and Marter! I love your reaction to this, and to all the movies you watch!

Part of Cars is based off history. Route 66 used to be one of the only routes from Chicago to Los Angeles. Many towns were built along this route. When the interstate was built, many of the towns got bypassed just to save a little time. And many towns went under because of this.

[@monaclemin4807]

the ferrari scene with luigi and guido is missed by many including me. The voice actor of the red f430 is michael schumacher himself, former f1 driver and 7 time world champion. Only other guy who's achieved that is lewis hamilton.

The guy that played Mater is Larry The Cable Guy and most of his humor is along the lines of Mater’s humor, though he gets a bit more PG-13, with as much as you enjoy Mater, you should check him out, I think you’d love him!

[@danielsummers2484]

Almost word for word what I came to say! I agree, he would enjoy Larry.

[@michaelpopowich5095]

That name Mater is actually from an old joke of his which he uses once more in the movie the original joke was he was talking to a person who said Mater "like tomater but without the to"

[@Pochitaman30]

"He won 3 piston cups" Mator: He did what with his cup?🤮 Is still one of the funniest lines ever😂

"Why are farts so funny?" IDK Leo but I'm 61, I've seen the tractor farting scene dozens of times and it still makes me laugh, it's ridiculous. Mater is absolutely the best part of this movie.

It's because farts are silly and anything that's silly makes us laugh

[@Browncoat66]

The Ferrari that came into Luige's tyre shop was voiced by Michael Schumacher 7 times World F1 Champion! 👍

[@jansenart0]

9:00 The old cars here were the Car Talk brothers, Tom and Ray Magliozzi, from National Public Radio, who would make very entertaining, mildly-educated and sometimes correct guesses about people's car problems who called in to their show from 1977 to 2012. They always signed off with "don't drive like my brother". Ton died in 2014.

[@erinbernstein6843]

Love those guys

[@rollomaughfling380]

I remember that show. RIP, Tom. NPR is huge in California, and should be more so in the rest of the country. Such a rich resource of valuable information and entertainment, rather than the aimless chittering of commercial radio.

[@willgeary6086]

The history of the Hudson Hornet even down to racing decals is based on real NASCAR history, they were the kings of NASCAR from 51 to 54, though the reason they stopped racing them is different. Hudson had to merge with another company. The racing program was scrapped and not long after the Hudson brand was discontinued.

[@patrickkanas3874]

The King's massive crash also is based in Nascar history. Richard Petty once suffered a serious crash very similar to the one in the movie

This soundtrack was one of a kind too. Perfectly compliments the movie and it’s singed into my brain bc of how much I’ve seen this movie ☠️

36:24 Wow I never noticed before but look at Mater. so young and clean not a scratch on him. I think he took the town bypass the hardest. no other car aged like he did.

Yeah, the story of Radiator Springs is kinda the story of Route 66, and other state routes, where Route 66 was an experience, by itself, with sites to see along the way, cute inns, and the like. Honestly? I wanna drive it, one day. It takes a while, but I think it'd be worth it.

[@Starbug1S1]

I just recently bought a 2017 Cadillac CT6 3.0TT Platinum. Yes, I've been to several NASCAR race tracks. I usually have friends go to Talladega (Alabama) first to see some four wide racing at its finest. That being said, if you want to see some good racing that has some right turns too, I highly recommend IMSA Road Atlanta (Georgia). It's a different ballgame than NASCAR. Both series are good, but seeing a Ferrari, Cadillac, Lamborghini, BMW, and more going around a track is so much fun to watch.

[@latentgamer5762]

I sold 'em when cts-v was a thing. I can't believe they downgraded to a 3.0 in a caddy...

[@LunaticKD1991]

A key to owning your own car is knowing how to fix it yourself and having the tools to do so. Saves you money in the long run.

[@latentgamer5762]

Aside from basic maintenance, those days are gone. Too many electronics to fix your own car without being an actual mechanic and having a $10,000 tool. It's still a really good idea to know the maintenance stuff, though. Pads, roters, belts, plugs, etc.

What's funny is, the history of the *real life* Hudson Hornet matches up with Doc's history. With an exception that Doc wasn't tossed to the curb (sorry) the way he says. NASCAR rules required the cars used to race be based on production vehicles with a minimum number of them produced for sale. Hudson had long been bought up in the consolidation era of the car industry, but the new owners had kept the production open but sales had fallen off and they could not justify building the numbers NASCAR mandated, so the Hudson Hornet was disqualified, but not because nobody wanted him/it to race, but because people weren't buying the street-use ones enough.
