History

Cars

Ralph in the crash.

In Cars, Ralph is one of the thirty-six participants in the Dinoco 400 at the Motor Speedway of the South. He is involved in the accident created by Chick Hicks, during which he is seen hitting Winford Bradford Rutherford and Murray Clutchburn, and while he suffers some minor physical damage, he is still able to continue racing. During the final lap, Ralph finished in 8th place behind the three-way tie of Strip Weathers, Chick Hicks, and Lightning McQueen.

Cars 3

Ralph Carlow appears in Cars 3, competing in the Piston Cup against the next-generation racers. He is one of the veterans still racing at the Los Angeles International Speedway race where Lightning McQueen has his crash, but sometime between that and the Florida 500, he retires and is replaced by a next-generation racer named Spikey Fillups.

Bio

Number 117, Ralph Carlow is the little brother to famous Hollywood actor Jordon Carlow. The two brothers had little respect for what the other did for a living, but when Jordon got a role playing a race car in the film "Racing Hearts," he was forced by the studio to spend time shadowing his brother Ralph. After two long months of research Jordon came away with a new respect for how hard racing really is, and after seeing his brother's performance in the film Ralph gained a new respect for acting. Since then Jordon never misses a race and Ralph never misses a premiere.
