In Pixar's Cars, what small Arizona town does Lightning McQueen accidentally damage?

In Pixar's Cars, Lightning McQueen accidentally damages Radiator Springs.

After becoming separated from his transport truck, McQueen races onto Route 66 and damages the town's main road while trying to escape. The town's residents require him to repair it before he can leave.

Radiator Springs is a fictional community inspired by historic U.S. Route 66 towns in Arizona. Its residents include Doc Hudson, Sally Carrera, Mater, Luigi, Guido, Flo, and Ramone.

The film contrasts the town's quiet, overlooked setting with McQueen's fame in professional racing. Its story also helped revive interest in Route 66 tourism and roadside landmarks. Radiator Springs later appears in Cars 2, Cars 3, and Disney theme-park attractions.
