A dedicated Disneyland enthusiast has marked his 15,000th spin on an auto-racing attraction inspired by the animated film Cars. Jon Alan Hale, a television technician from Brea, California, reached the milestone on Monday at Disney California Adventure's Radiator Springs Racers.
Hale was eager to try the ride, which debuted in 2012, after gastric bypass and knee replacement surgeries in 2010 and 2011. He quickly became fascinated, meticulously tracking his car's color, lane, and race outcome in a notebook.
