Racer 01 is a character in the The Rookie and the Cars comics. He is a muscle car who raced under the sponsorship of Rust-eze before suffering a career-jeopardizing crash and retiring. Lightning McQueen superseded him as the Rust-eze racer, beginning with the Beachside 500 at the Beachside Speedway.
When he was young, he and Darrell Cartrip enjoyed driving in the woods while smuggling moonshine oil. Sheriff often found them and tried to pursue them. He later moved to Radiator Springs, and at one point competed in the Radiator Springs Rally.
He resembles a 1967 Pontiac Firebird muscle car with a red and green livery.
