Lightning McQueen's Racing Academy
Lightning McQueen's Racing Academy is a show attraction based on the "Cars franchise" in Sunset Boulevard at Disney's Hollywood Studios, which opened on March 31, 2019, as part of the park's 30th anniversary celebration. The show takes place after the events of "Cars 3". The show is housed in Sunset Showcase Theater near Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith. Show summary. During the 10-minute show, guests will be taking on the role of rookie racer as they enter the theater and find themselves face-to-face with Lightning McQueen, who appears  live on stage. The audience is enveloped by a giant, wrap-around screen that is nearly two stories tall and stretches more than 200 feet from end to end. McQueen is anxious to show what he's learned over the years. But, things don't always go according to plan when his main rival Chick Hicks hacks into the simulator system to humiliate him, and he has to think fast to get back on course. Friends like Mater, Cruz Ramirez and Lightning's pals from Radiator Springs chime in with their support, as Lightning gears up for a challenge to  finally settle the score with Chick Hicks in a virtual simulator race. In the courtyard outside the attraction, guests can meet Cruz Ramirez and join DJ's Dance Party, relocated from Cars Land at Disney California Adventure.
