Smokey reveals that even though Doc never raced again after his crash, he found new happiness in training Lightning. Accepting that he is not the racer he once was, he allows them to coach him in methods to outsmart Storm instead of beating him with sheer speed. Cruz, getting impatient by Lightning's dancing and singing, agrees, and the two travel to Doc's hometown of Thomasville, where they meet Smokey and several of Doc's old friends. Lightning tries to make it up to her by fixing her trophy and dancing to help her get on Mack. Lightning picks up Cruz, but she refuses to go with him after what he said to her before. Mater suggests that he track down Doc's mentor Smokey. Finally, she leaves to make the trip back to the racing center on her own.Īfter seeing a report on Storm's new speed record, Lightning calls his best friend, Mater, for advice. When he lashes out at her for wasting his time and breaks her trophy, she gets angry and reveals that she had wanted to race professionally when she was younger but never started a race because she felt outclassed by the other cars. Then, for inspiration, they travel to a dirt track on which Doc raced but inadvertently ended up competing in a demolition derby, which Cruz ultimately wins, leading to Lightning being humiliated on national television. Instead of improving his own top speed to beat Storm's speed, Lightning spends most of the day helping Cruz get used to racing on the sandy coastline outside the training center. Sterling accepts the deal and sends Cruz to work with him one-on-one at a nearby beach. Lightning offers a deal instead: if he wins the first race of the new upcoming season in Florida, he can keep racing at his discretion otherwise, he will retire immediately. Lightning eventually becomes impatient and annoyed with Cruz's methods and attempts to use a high-tech racing simulator, only to cause severe damage to the equipment.Ĭonvinced that Lightning is no longer capable of winning, Sterling is ready to take him off the racing circuit and use him for product endorsements. When he arrives, he learns that they have sold Rust-eze to new owner Sterling, who assigns him to work with trainer Cruz Ramirez. Rusty and Dusty, the owners of Lightning's Rust-eze racing team, send him to a newly opened racing center, much to his surprise. He tells his girlfriend, Sally Carrera, that he does not want to be forced into retirement as Doc was and decides to start training again, looking for new ways to regain his edge. Four months later, while recovering in Radiator Springs after the violent crash, a primer-coated Lightning watches footage of the crash that ended the career of his late mentor, Doc Hudson. He falls behind the pack in the final race of the season while trying to catch up, he loses control and suffers a violent rollover crash. Lightning's fellow veterans either retire or are fired by their sponsors, to be replaced by new-generation racers.
