Template:Infobox racing driverBobby Swift was a stock race car, that around late 2010s, was a racing driver who competed in the Piston Cup Racing Series for Tank Coat team with number 36.
History
Bobby Swift was a stock race car that lived in the United States. He was a racing driver who, around late 2010s, competed in the Piston Cup Racing Series for Octane Gain team with number 19. He was known for squeezing past his opponents at the last moment to win a race. He was good friends with Lightning McQueen, Brick Yardley and Cal Weathers. He used to spar and joke with them during the races, always being at the front of the pack. In 2016 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 intervie with Racing Sports Network reporter, Shannon Spokes. In 2016, in the midseason, with the rise of popularity of high-tech next-generation series of race cars, that had better achievements on the tracks, he stopped competing in Piston Cup and got replaced by the Tank Coat team with Daniel Swervez who started racing for a team since Los Angeles 500 race at the Los Angeles International Speedway.
Physical description
Swift was a Brawny Motor Co. Spark EA stock race car with Lightyear racing tyres. His eyes were purple.

Above his front windows and on his front fenders, he had the Lightyear logo. He had stickers imitating lamps and seven stickers of sponsors behind the wheels.
