The race goes near and out of town. Following the scandal involving Miles Axlerod in London, no racers display any Allinol logos on their livery for this race.

Race report
Although McQueen is seen with Allinol logos just before the start of the race, once the start has been made, no driver wears an Allinol logo because of the recent scandal after the London Grand Prix. The race seems to take place over a single lap. Francesco Bernoulli and Lightning McQueen quickly took the first places, on the tarmac section. Raoul ÇaRoule did a great race on the dirt at the edge of the track and stayed behind the leading duo.

Circuit
Layout
The starting line is located between Radiator Springs Curios and Flo's V8 Café, with the racers facing the Radiator Springs Courthouse & Fire Department. The racers turn right at Stanley's statue and drive a long straightaway before reaching Willy's Butte, where they have to make a left turn on the dirt track's high banking, go back around and drive out of town and into Ornament Valley. It is unknown how the racers managed to get back to Radiator Springs going by that route.
Pit lane
As the race only takes place over one lap, there is no pit lane and none of the racers' crew chiefs or pitties appeared in the event with the exception of John Lassetire and Mater (who participated in the race as one of the 12 contestants).
