THE REAL INSPIRATIONS BEHIND CARS CHARACTERS!

[@Tharitkung]

Forgot to mention, The King are voiced by Richard Petty, the racer who drove light blue Superbird no.43 that's an origin of The King's character

[@B4RC0D3_YT]

Besides, Strip's nephew Cal Weathers is voiced by Kyle Petty, who is the son of Richard.

[@ju-87b9]

His wife lynda Weathers is also voiced by Lynda petty, Richard's voice. And Richards title was also Richard "The King" Petty.

[@huabendy7096]

​@@B4RC0D3_YT Tesla Cruz Ramirez

[@Ignaz66692]

In Germany it was Voiced by Niki Lauda 👌

[@ainmeile]

Paul Newman raced cars himself and later ran a successful Indycar team. Having Doc on the radio in the film's climax was a tribute to Newman himself, who was a well-known fixture on the pit wall for years.

[@lemmyspeaks]

Number 1 argument in elementary school were the boys all debating over whether the King was a superbird or a charger Daytona. I always knew he was a superbird because that’s the car that lured petty back to race with Chrysler in NASCAR. But believe me it would turn into a shouting match of squeaker voices. 😂😂😂

[@Aussie-HJW]

Mater is actually a '55 to '56 Chev' truck. He's the same model that Clint Eastwood drove in Every Which Way But Loose.

[@toprakdardogan3619]

He said i can provide you with a specific brand and model. And provided a clearly wrong brand model. Just wow... It looks like this dude doesn't know that much about automobiles.

[@SWZGAMING.]

Mater also looks like a 1957 Dodge truck

2:33 #9 Chase Racelott, original #9 William Clyde Racelott(Chase’s dad), #3 Carstin “Ace" Dillon, #24 William Byrev, original #24 Jeff Gorvette, #12 Ryan "Inside" Laney, #22 GoGo Logano, #99 Danny Swervez, #10 Aric Almirolling, #23 Bubba Wheelhouse and lastly, #18 Rowdy Revvin' Busch

[@foxycat126]

Don’t mention Lewis Hamilton without Jeff

[@dofuka]

You're right 🎯

[@karsenkeeble390]

Jeff is Jeff Gordon or Juan Pablo

[@PGSpinelli95]

How did they fuck that up

[@loganwatkins9514]

For real.... And Michael Schumacher..... And mater was not an international..... This was not researched well.

[@jomichel3594]

In the first film there also have Richard Petty, Mario Andretti, Michael Schumacher and Dale jr. a voice role and in Cars 2 in the Lewis Hamilton/ Emerson Fittipaldi scene, in other languages you also have Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso and Vitaly Petrow as the same car Also something I thought would have fit if he didn't die would have been Dale senior as Chick Hicks

[@shanekumar3403]

In the australian version we had mark winterbottom (frosty) who is a v8 supercar driver

[@nathanemuyal716]

in cars 2 also have sebastian lobe

[@marshallc6215]

Dale Sr as chick hicks would be a massive personality clash. It wouldn't be unfair to say Dale Sr was all about winning, but he was about it for the sake of winning, not for the glory. Very different character motivations. A character like Chick is best voiced by a non-driver because they're supposed to be irredeemable, a moustache-twirling villain.

[@MayaMachina-n8s]

It's not just references to car a model but also the some of the voices being actual ginormous names in automation The Magliozzi brothers (Rusty and Dusty), THE ACTUAL MICHAEL SCHUMACHER, Mario Andretti, Boogity boy DW himself, Bob Costas! Never noticed it when I saw the movie bazillion times as a kid but getting back into the franchise and automation in general has made me realize how much this movie alone drips with so much love and passion

[@norcodaev]

Man, this cool little film saved me from hours and hours of abject boredom, and I am so thankful!🤣 When my daughter was younger, for some reason, she didn’t trip on Barbie, Disney Princess stuff, or any of the typical little girl stuff, she was addicted to Cars. She must have watched this film EVERY SINGLE DAY for probably 5 to 6 years. She had posters of Flash, Mater, Sally, etc, in her room. At Christmas she’d ask for Cars toys and Cars lego. Whenever I’d buy her clothes, we always went and looked in the boys section to see if they had Cars clothes. I got her the Cars video games for her DS and gamecube. Her birthdays were always Cars themed. She had all the little die cast HotWheels Cars cars (only they weren’t the HotWheels brand) Anyway, you get my point. She LOVED Cars! I’m sure a lot of dads would be jealous, and I’m soooo glad I didn’t have to go through like a decade of pink Disney princess bullshit🤣🙏🏻 Nice video, buddy. Brings back lots of fond memories.

[@dofuka]

I'm glad to hear that. And you're very lucky. 🤣

In Cars 4, we need NASCAR Formula One and IndyCar drivers

[@B4RC0D3_YT]

You should have added Darrell Cartrip inside. He's the counterpart of NASCAR-driver-turned-announcer Darrell Waltrip with the fame of his yellow Buick Regal Grand National.

[@dofuka]

You are right, but I didn't see anything about it in the sources.

Legendary racing icons were voices in the Cars franchise, but when I heard the Tappet brothers as the Rusteeze spokesmen, I shed a tear because my dad and I would listen to car talk on Saturdays when driving me to football practice until he died in 04.

[@mrbobjackpeanutbutter]

Chick Hicks got the Dale Earnhardt mustache and it did neraly take 1 year to win his first and only piston cup🤔

[@tevinhoward4419]

McQueen is the inspiration of both NASCAR and Corvette C6 & C1

[@MediaArchive2-z9f]

Real life racers Jeff Gordon and Michael Schumacher cameo too. Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson too in the UK version.

[@robkiger3434]

Kings inspiration is doc. He crashes like doc, but unlike doc king had the rookie "help" him to the finish line.

[@monsterjambrony]

I thought Cruz Ramirez was more of a Jaguar F-Type.

McQueen is not based on any real car, but probably a generation IV stock car mixed with a Chevy Corvette. The gen IV was used in the NASCAR cup series from 1994 to 2007, in the Busch nationwide series until 2010, and by the ARCA Menards series until 2017

Mater is more closely resembling a 50s Chevy not an international.

I think is was quite clever of the writers to make the villains of Cars 2 unwanted American and Soviet cars banded together as an organisation bent on revenge. You can tell the people behind the Cars series know their cars well.

[@masy9595]

King was also heavily inspired by the Dodge Charger Daytona since that shared a lot of similarities to the Plymouth Superbird
