In Pixar’s Cars 3, what is the name of the high-tech facility where Cruz Ramirez trains racers?

In Pixar’s Cars 3, Cruz Ramirez trains racers at the Rust-eze Racing Center.

The facility is a modern training complex where Lightning McQueen begins preparing for the new generation of high-performance competitors. Cruz works there as a trainer and uses advanced equipment, data, simulations, and specialized exercises to improve racing performance.

The center represents the contrast between McQueen’s earlier racing career and the sport’s increasingly technological future. McQueen initially struggles with the facility’s methods because he wants to regain his old speed, while Cruz gradually demonstrates that she has considerable racing ability of her own.

The Rust-eze Racing Center is not the same place as Radiator Springs or the race tracks used in the Piston Cup. Radiator Springs is McQueen’s adopted hometown, while the center is a professional training site connected to his Rust-eze team. Its name comes from Rust-eze, the sponsor associated with McQueen since the first Cars film.
