[[File:Bobby Swift -3.png|thumb|left|220px|Bobby Swift, [[Lightning McQueen]] and [[Cal Weathers]] during a [[Piston Cup Racing Series|Piston Cup]] race in 2016.]]Bobby Swift is an American racing stock car. Since the 2000s or 2010s seasons of the Piston Cup Racing Series, he was a professional racer and member of [[Octane Gain Racing]]. During races, he held high positions and was known for his strategy of squeezing past his opponents at the last moment to win a race. He was good friends with [[Lightning McQueen]], [[Cal Weathers]] and [[Brick Yardley]]. During the 2016 Piston Cup season he get fired, and was replaced by [[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.]]
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.
