sometimes i think too hard about thomasville and start shaking and crying like a small dog.

something about a small town nestled in the north carolina mountains, forest stretching for miles around it, on race day the sounds of the engines echoing through the valleys… the comfort of the cotter pin and the familiar laughter of a specific group of five — which as time passed, eventually turned into a mourning group of four — how all five of them grew up in that town together and found family in those nights at the bar…

only old white man (besides doc) that I’m cool with

Lightning to Doc: Are you really telling me you never messed up in your life? Not once?

Smokey, crashing in out of nowhere: EVERYONE SHUT UP I NEED TO HEAR THIS

Transformers aren't cars, They are Alien-Robot-People that can Turn into cars (And other Vehicles,) and are thus exempt from this list.

Week of fluff day 2!

Lightning's first Piston cup! And Doc decided to "ruin" the picture :)

Maybe a bit OOC but still! It a great way to end the year, but I will make a cars blog and repost this there :>

This picture definetly ended up being sent to Smokey

earlier today the brain cells bounced off of each other and i was reminded of how proud thomasville was and still is of doc. no matter what, they loved him. their speedway sign still has his name and face proudly plastered on it, its proud claim of being his hometown, the sign is in beautiful condition despite it being over fifty years old, not a single thing was changed about it. the billboards in the track itself havent been changed one bit, it still has docs ad for smokeys garage, although in a little more disarray than the speedway sign, its still there.

smokey always knew doc would come back. he has a picture on the workbench in his garage of himself and doc (along with pictures of the others scattered around). they still have the old race tapes with doc in them, smokey knew exactly where they were otherwise we wouldnt have had the scene where theyre outside the garage with it being projected on the wall

there are still posters in the cotter pin of doc, and although all the old racing posters are still up (the ones about the crew anyways) they left docs to stay. they were so fucking proud of him guys. they loved him so much

ok @orchestra-of-demonic-screechinghear me out for the snow white au

for this then smokey would be the huntsman working for lightning, at least with how I envision it

Was rereading the Art of Cars 3 and never realized that originally in the final race, McQueen was supposed to break another axle.

Do with that what you will
