History
Cars
In Cars, Ernie competes in the Dinoco 400, the final race of the season, which takes place at the Motor Speedway of the South. He spends most of the race near the front of the pack somewhere in the top 15. Ernie took part in the accident caused by Chick Hicks that involved almost all of the racers on the track. During the accident, he initially tried to avoid it by slowing down but this caused him to drift and hit the safety wall only to soon after hit by Todd Marcus.
Ernie Gearson was T-boned at some point in the wreck as indicated by the post-wreck pit where he is driving down pit lane bent up and out of shape. He was badly damaged, but he was able to continue racing. He was the first racer to make it off pit road as seen in the following scene where he is side by side with Lightning McQueen restarting in 2nd. Lightning had managed to get a better run however as he already broke away from Ernie and the pack as soon as the green flag came out. Ernie had lost a lot of positions during the rest of the race as by the time of the final lap, he was near the back in front of James Cleanair as scene in a shot on the last lap. He finished in the 17th position.
Cars 3
In Cars 3, Ernie is still competing in the Piston Cup. However when Jackson Storm made his debut, interest in Next-Gen race cars rose. Ernie retires and was replaced by a next generation racer named Nick Shift.
Physical description
In Cars, Ernie Gearson is a Husker Morroco stock car. His eye color is brown. He uses Lightyear racing tires. When he started his racing career, his engine had horsepower of only 300. He is painted light blue (aqua) with a green stripe wrapped around his doors, hood, and roof. He has the Spare Mint logo on his hood, as well as the number 93 painted in white on his doors and roof. In Cars 3, Ernie has a drastic redesign as he is now a Capitol Motors Mark II. However, his paint job was similar with the only difference being the headlights as he gained ones that imitate headlights with the number 93 being placed under the right one.
Bio
Car Finder Game
- Ernie Gearson recalls the day when high dollar sponsorships and squealing fans were still a thing of the future. He may be one of the oldest racers on the grids these days, but he's been around the track once or twice. He's still got plenty of fire in his chambers. His friends call him "Giddyup", alluding to the humble 300 horsepower engine he started his career with all those years ago.
