953 nut 66,088 #1 Posted 4 hours ago May 26, 2006, The turn 2 grandstands at Charlotte Motor Speedway were turned into an open-air theater on May 26, 2006 for the world premiere of Disney-Pixar’s Cars. The seats faced four custom-built outdoor screens, measuring five stories high and 15 stories wide, with seating for 30,000. Before the premiere, the movie’s stars—including Paul Newman, Owen Wilson, Dale Earnhart Jr. and racing great Richard Petty—walked a red carpet unfurled outside the speedway. Disney Pixar's Cars premiered in the USA with its wide theatrical release on June 9, 2006. 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
