05/11/2017 by Robin Elton

Road to the Races is a nationwide tour inviting fans of #95 to gear up for the upcoming big-screen release of Disney•Pixar’s Cars 3, and it’s rolling into Cherry Hill this weekend. Fans will get a sneak peek of the movie and be able to check out life-size lookalikes of their favorite characters.

Road to the Races will visit Miami, Dallas, Chicago, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Denver and Los Angeles, among others (full list of stops here). The tour wraps up in California at NASCAR at the Sonoma Raceway June 24th and 25th; the life-size character cars will also make an appearance on the red carpet for the Cars 3 world premiere.
