'''Bobby Swift''' is a professional race car who competed in the [[Piston Cup Racing Series]], before being replaced by next-gen racer [[Daniel Swervez]]. He is a [[Brawny Motor Co.]] Spark EA.<ref name="MTC">''[[Meet the Cars]]''</ref> He raced for the [[Octane Gain]] team and replaced [[Billy Oilchanger]], and befriended many of his fellow competitors, most notably [[Lightning McQueen]] and [[Cal Weathers]]. The three friends constantly placed within the top positions, and remained mostly unmatched until a new rookie named [[Jackson Storm]] made his debut, and easily overpowered the other racers.

Storm's success sparked interest in next-generation racers, and many Piston Cup teams began replacing their previous racers with next-generation models. Octane Gain replaced Bobby with a rookie named [[Daniel Swervez]].

[[File:Bobby Swift -3.png|thumb|220px|left|Bobby Swift, [[Lightning McQueen]] and [[Cal Weathers]] during the [[Dinoco 400]] race at the [[Copper Canyon Speedway]] in 2016.]]
As the 2016 Piston Cup season begins, Swift, McQueen, and Weathers are at the top of their game. The three racers are consistently battling it out in the top three positions, and having a blast throughout. The three friends enjoy playing pranks on each other -- for example, when McQueen is being interviewed after winning a race, Bobby and one of his pit crew throw whip cream and confetti on him.
In ''Cars 3'', Bobby competes in the 2016 Piston Cup season along the likes of [[Lightning McQueen]], [[Cal Weathers]], and [[Brick Yardley]]. Early in the 2016 season of the Piston Cup, after McQueen's victory in [[Dinoco Light 350]] at the [[Motor Speedway of the South]], Swift and his crew pranked him in extinguishing foam and confetti while he was having an interview with [[Racing Sports Network]] reporter, [[Shannon Spokes]]. In the mid-season when [[Jackson Storm]] won at the [[Copper Canyon Speedway]], he, Lightning and Cal were surprised by his speed. When Lightning asks who he was, Bobby responded saying that was [[Jackson Storm]] who is one of the rookies. Interest and popularity in the [[Next-Generation]] race cars rose since they had better achievements on the track racing. For the rest of the season, more and more stock cars were replaced with high-tech rookies and Bobby was unable to keep up. Before the [[Los Angeles 500]], the final race of the 2016 Piston Cup Series, Bobby was theoretically fired by [[Octane Gain]]'s owner and was replaced by [[Danny Swervez]]. Bobby does not appear again in the film.
 
===''Cars 3: Driven to Win''===
[[File:Cars 3 driven to win bobby swift by naruhinafanatic-dbcsied.png|thumb|220px|Bobby Swift in the ''[[Cars 3: Driven to Win]]'' video game.]]
Bobby Swift is an unlockable playable character in ''[[Cars 3: Driven to Win]]'' video game. Like most of the playable characters, he is unlocked by completing skill checks.


In the Dinoco 400 at [[Copper Canyon Speedway]], Swift and McQueen are neck-in-neck while rounding the final turn, and the announcers highlighted this. Suddenly, however, a new racer named Jackson Storm speeds by them right at the end, and wins the race. As Storm drives onto the winners podium, McQueen wonders who he is, and Bobby and Cal inform him that Storm is one of the rookies.
===''Cars: Lightning League''===
Bobby appears in the mobile game ''[[Cars: Lightning League]]''. He is an unplayable character along with [[Cal Weathers]] and [[Brick Yardley]].


[[File:McQueenSwiftWeathersSpeak.jpg|thumb|220px|McQueen, Swift, and Weathers take interest in Storm.]]Because of Storm's stellar performance, many Piston Cup teams/sponsors realize that next-generation racers are far more phsically capable than traditional stock cars, and begin replacing their racers. On the day of a race, McQueen arrives to find that many of his friends have been replaced, and even witnesses [[Brick Yardley]] being fired. Nervous, McQueen goes to Bobby to ask him what is going on, only to find that he has been replaced, as well. A next-generation racer named [[Daniel Swervez]] introduces himself, and drives away, leaving McQueen even more nervous than before.
