Trivia

- Despite Brick and Jeff Gorvette being 2 separate characters, Brick Yardley is likely based on Jeff Gordon, who retired from NASCAR in 2015, 2 years before Cars 3 was released and 1 year before the opening of the film takes place.
- In the film, he appears with a white spoiler, but on his diecast, he has a green spoiler.
- His eye color is brown in his past die-cast releases. This was corrected in his later releases.
- In Record of All Time, instead of having his usual number, 24, he bears the number 61, James Cleanair's number, who used the same sponsor.
- Brick may have been originally intended to be a more prominent one of Lightning McQueen's friends/rivals at the start of Cars 3. The best evidence for this is Bobby Swift's official bio describing Bobby, Brick, and Lightning as close friends and Brick appearing in Cars 3: Driven to Win instead of Cal, as these were both likely finalized before the movie released.
