Type	Weapon
Use	To make Allinol explode
First appearance	Cars 2
Latest appearance	Cars 2: The Video Game

Professor Z's EMP weapon was an electromagnetic pulse emitter disguised as a WGP broadcasting camera, that made an appearance in Cars 2. This weapon is extremely dangerous because, if used on a car that is driving at high speeds and is using Allinol as its main fuel, the pulse will be so strong that it can damage the car's engine. The weapon can also kill the car if is set to 100% power.

History

The EMP generator was first seen on the oil rig, being shown to Professor Z. It was also first tested on Rod "Torque" Redline after he was given Allinol. This blew Rod's engine into flames and his body exploded into bits and pieces. Grem and Acer later used it in the Tokyo, Porto Corsa, and London races. After the flameout of five cars, race fans thought Allinol was bad and gave up on it, much to the Lemons' happiness. The camera was later used on Lightning McQueen, but the pulse failed due to Sarge switching out the Allinol to Fillmore's organic fuel.

Trivia

• During the development of Cars 2, the EMP camera was originally going to be a red antenna ball that caused the the racers to blow up. It can be seen in action in the deleted Paris Race and Meet Finn scenes.
