History

Cars 3

Cam Spinner swerving, leading to the Florida International Super Speedway crash in 2017.

In Cars 3, Cam competes in the 2016 season of the Piston Cup. He joined the Triple Dent racing team serving as a permanent replacement for the previous racer, Terry Kargas. He debuts at the Heartland Motor Speedway, finishing in 18th.

Later, Cam competes in the 2017 season at the Florida 500 race at the Florida International Super Speedway, where he started from the twenty-third position and then moves up into the fifteenth position. During the race, Spinner causes a crash by pushing himself too hard trying to get faster and pass other racers, blowing his rear tire in a process, just like how Lightning McQueen blew out his rear tire during the final Los Angeles 500 race at the Los Angeles International Speedway because he pushed himself too hard trying to get faster to pass Jackson Storm. He spun out of control and hit Tim Treadless and George New-Win. They slid across the track and hit other cars. Spinner soon slides towards the wall, hitting Steve LaPage in the process. After that, he went airborne and hit Harvey Rodcap when he got back on the ground. He was severely damaged and does not finish the race. Due to the accident a restart for the race had to be called.
