Jackson Storm is the main, later secondary antagonist of Cars 3 and a custom-built Piston Cup race car. A rookie in the 2017 season, Storm possesses incredible abilities, proving a worthy opponent even to racing veterans such as Lightning McQueen. He races for IGNTR, and his racing number is 2.0 ,which is actually a 20 (a play on the fact he is the "next gen" racer). By the end of the 2017 season, Storm had a record of at least 10 victories, and broke the record for fastest lap ever. He is the main antagonist of the movie.
History
Cars 3
In Cars 3, among the many Piston Cup rookies who make their debut in the 2017 season, Storm is the most significant. He picks up many victories throughout the season, one of which being at the Dinoco 400 at the Motor Speedway of the South. When Lightning McQueen kindly introduces himself, Storm dismisses and mocks the long-time champion. Storm becomes one of the season's frontrunners, beating out rookies and veterans alike, including McQueen.[2] In his debut race at Copper Canyon Speedway, Storm comes in first place, ahead of typical frontrunners Bobby Swift, Cal Weathers, and McQueen.[3]
Storm receives unconventional training, making use of simulations and other advanced technology to perfect his talents. These efforts are monitored by a team of pitties.
During one of the season's races, McQueen is involved in an accident that forces him out of the game. During his recovery, McQueen turns to Rust-eze Racing Center trainer Cruz Ramirez, who helps McQueen train to beat Storm at the Florida 500, an upcoming major Piston Cup event. At the Florida International Speedway, Storm beats the record for fastest lap in Piston Cup history.[4]

When the Florida 500 finally arrives, McQueen is determined to finally beat Storm. Shortly before the race, Storm pulls over to McQueen's pit and arrogantly mocks McQueen and Ramirez, insulting their abilities and paint job, respectively.[5] Throughout the race, McQueen finds himself continuing to struggle against Jackson. Suddenly, Lightning realizes he can send Ramirez out in his place as long as she wears the same sponsor and number. Cruz receives the necessary modifications and heads out to try her own hand at beating Storm. She thinks back to her training with McQueen, and uses the techniques she learned to catch up to Storm. Jackson initially takes no notice of Cruz, until she is right behind him. Thinking quickly, Storm pushes her up against a wall to prevent her from passing him, but Cruz performs a flip maneuver to free herself and pass him, allowing her to cross the finish line and win the race. He does not appear afterwards but it is likely he raged and swore revenge against Cruz.

Storm will appear as a playable character in Cars 3: Driven to Win.
General information
Personality and traits
Storm's incredible abilities are responsible for his quiet confidence, as Storm is well aware of his own strength, and he believes he is representative of his racing generation as a whole. As a result of this, Storm carries a cocky demeanor, which others view as off-putting.[6] He also doesn't like being beat and will be aggressive , as seen when Cruz was pushed against the wall by him.
