McQueen is in my mind as I turn the throttle and fire dust and sand up into the air, accelerating northwards on the Pacific Coast Highway. On one side are steep forests filled with Sequoias; on the opposite, the North Pacific and rolling beaches. The Interceptor's engine hums along amiably as I ascend into the forest.
