Sheriff's Chase

Template:Race CourseSheriff's Chase is an event in Cars: The Video Game. It stretches through almost all of Radiator Springs and Ornament Valley.

Cut-Scene

"(Sheriff is parked in front of the Radiator Springs billboard when Lightning McQueen arrives)
Lightning McQueen: "Keeping cool, Sheriff?"
Sheriff: "Nope, speeders."
Lightning McQueen: "Yeah, I hate those little buggers too. Get all stuck in your grill..."
Sheriff: "No, no, not mosqueeters, son! Speeders! Got sand in your tank or what? You of all cars should know a thing'r 2 'bout speedin'. Wasn't too long ago I recall catching a certain race car who tore through my town."
Lightning McQueen: "Right, that chase. Well, you gotta remember, you had help."
Sheriff: "Help?! You wouldn't accuse an officer of the law of cheating, would you, son?"
Lightning McQueen: "Well, there was some barbed wire snagged on my bumper, telephone wires, and that statue of Stanley kind of slowed me down too.
Sheriff: "Why, you're tryin' to tempt me into a rematch, aren't you?"
(they drive onto the road)
Lightning McQueen: "Sheriff, no. Would I do something like that?"
Sheriff: "I'll take your challenge, boy! Doc just tuned me up and outfitted me with a turbocharger!" (makes revving sounds)
Lightning McQueen: "Wait a second. You're not gonna bust me for speeding and throw me into the impound afterwards, are you?"
Sheriff: "No sir... not if you win.""

Track

The race is 1 big lap through Radiator Springs and Ornament Valley. You play as Lightning, and your only opponent is Sheriff. If you win, you will earn 5 trophies, unlock Ornament Valley, and 2 new events: Sheriff's Hot Pursuit and Rustbucket Race-O-Rama.

Also note, Sheriff always gets a head start. That's most likely because of his turbocharger.

The race starts on the road from Ornament Valley, into the Drive-In Theatre. Then racers turn and go through Radiator Springs, back into the Nature Preserve and into a rocky trench that leads into Ornament Valley. Then racers go under a bridge, and next to a field, into another rocky cliff-side, onto a short road that leads over an old-fashioned bridge, back to Radiator Springs.

End-scene

"(Lightning McQueen is doing donuts, spinning round and round.)
Sheriff: "Just what do you think you're doing, son?"
Lightning McQueen: (stops spinning) "What? I thought all cops liked donuts."
Sheriff: "Get outta here! Before I have you picking up trash on the highway!"
Lightning McQueen: "Ah, c'mon, gimme a little laugh on that, the donuts, that's funny!"
Sheriff: (gets angry at McQueen)
(Lightning McQueen drives away.)
Sheriff: "Hot rodder.""

Trivia

• This is the only race in the game that is actually 1 lap. Sally's Wheel Well Sprint and Tailfin Pass Grand Prix are called 1 lap races, but they're not exactly laps.
• Since the track is dedicated to Sheriff, he will always appear as an opponent in this race in Arcade mode, unless the player is racing as him, in which he will appear as the racer the player is driving as.
• This is the only race in the game to still have 2 racers in Arcade mode, while all the others (except for Doc's Challenge, which has 4) have 5 racers.
