History

Cars

In Cars, Mac is one of the thirty-six race cars that competes in the final race of the Piston Cup season at the Motor Speedway of the South. When Chick Hicks causes the big crash, he was also one of the cars damaged in the wreck. He spends most of the race behind Dale Earnhardt Jr., in around the 13th position. At one point in the race, The King overtakes him, and Mac finishes the race in 15th position.

Between Cars and Cars 3

Mac retired during the events between Cars and Cars 3 and was replaced by an unnamed racer. The Apple veteran racer eventually got fired and was replaced by J.P. Drive.

Physical description

Mac is an Axxelo Fission (a model that resembles the real life Chevrolet Impala SS NASCAR) that is painted white, with the Apple logo on his hood, and the number "84" painted in grey on his doors and roof.

Bio

• Mac iCar likes things clean and simple. He doesn't go for the flashy colors, and gaudy stickers that adorn some of his fellow racers. He prefers a simple sleek design, and feels this creates a bold statement, one that says, "I think different."

Trivia

• His racing number, 84, is a reference to the year 1984, when the Macintosh personal computer was first released, along with a commercial based on 1984, a book by George Orwell.
  • "84" is also Davey Apex's racing number, by mistake, However, this was corrected as his number supposedly 48 in Cars 3.
  • His racing number is 65 on the python but there is no racer numbered 65 in the race, meaning that he wore that number otherwise while carrying the 84.
• In early versions of the Car Finder Game game, he was named "Matthew Overtaker".
• His die-cast is one of the rarest and most valuable diecasts to date, as only 1,000 units were produced, and it was available exclusively in a 36-car Motor Speedway of the South box set that was only available to those with a Red Line Club membership.
• According to the production film commentary for Cars, Mac was the only racer to not be involved in the crash.
  • However, that's most likely an error. Since he was seen after the wreck crashed alongside Kevin Shiftright.
