However, the first indication of the attraction and the new land was some concept art published in the Dreaming section of The Walt Disney Company's 2006 annual report.

presentation at Disney California Adventure on June 11, 2010, Imagineer Kathy Mangum gave a brief rundown of the attraction's storyline.

The queue passes through the archway and beneath two bridges before entering Stanley's Oasis, nestled between the cliffs of Ornament Valley.

After winding through three of the town's earliest buildings, guests enter the Comfy Caverns Motor Court, where they board a convertible race car and the ride portion of the attraction begins.

This starts with a near head-on collision with Mack, followed by near-misses with Minny and Van, and narrowly making it over a grade crossing ahead of a speeding train.

Along the way, Mater takes the ride vehicles "tractor tipping", but this awakens Frank the combine harvester, who angrily chases the trespassers off of his farm.

The vehicle then reenters the town and passes Fillmore, Sarge, Lizzie, and Red before being greeted by Lightning McQueen and Sally Carrera.
