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 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.
He is painted purple with orange 2 polygon having 4 skewers directed forward and 2 facing back with one reaching the rear bumper. Around his windows he has orange arched shape. He has Octane Gain logo on his hood, rear fender, back and on his trunk. He also has white racing number 19 with black border on his roof, middle of sides and his bumper. Above his front windows he had written and on his front fenders he has Lightyear logo. He has stickers imitating lamps and 7 stickers of sponsors behind the wheels. He has dark grey caps with yellow border.

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.
