The State Farm Cars 2 Tour is Coming to America On Wheels

Lightning McQueen is coming to Allentown – hauled by a MACK® truck – and he’s bringing friends. The three main characters of Disney/Pixar’s upcoming summer blockbuster, CARS 2, will be at America On Wheels on May 7, 2011 with the State Farm Cars 2 promotional tour.

Upon arriving at the event, guests will instantly see if they have won one of 18,000 prizes including the grand prize – a family spy car! Those that complete all of the day’s spy missions will have a chance to win fun prizes.

Along with Lightning McQueen and friends, America On Wheels will be hosting the Dutch Dubbers Club Spring Cruise-In. Almost 100 Volkswagon cars will be cruising to America On Wheels to kick off the spring season. This free event will include music, food and a 50/50 raffle.
