“When
developing ‘Cars 3,’ we consulted and recruited NASCAR greats, from
rookie drivers and legends to the voices behind the sport,” says
director Brian Fee. “They revealed what happens behind the scenes of
racing and helped bring the film’s characters to life. To see them
displayed at the NASCAR Hall of Fame—a shrine to the history and
heritage of NASCAR—is a real thrill.”
