In Pixar's Cars, what town does Lightning McQueen accidentally enter after leaving Route 66?

Lightning McQueen accidentally enters Radiator Springs in Pixar's Cars.

While being transported to California for the Piston Cup tiebreaker, McQueen falls from Mack's trailer and becomes lost. He damages the road in Radiator Springs and is ordered to repair it. The assignment keeps him in the nearly forgotten town long enough to meet its residents and change his priorities.

Radiator Springs is located on the historic U.S. Route 66 in the fictional Carburetor County. Its decline reflects the effect of a new interstate highway, which diverts traffic away from the old road. The town's story therefore combines fictional characters with a real feature of Route 66 history.

Sally Carrera, Doc Hudson, Mater, and other residents help McQueen understand that racing success is not the only measure of a worthwhile life. Radiator Springs becomes his home rather than merely an accidental stop.
