By then, most stock car race cars have been replaced by "[[Next-Gen]]eration" racers. Over nine-tenths through the race, seven-time veteran champion [[Lightning McQueen]] suffers a nearly fatal rollover crash after blowing his right rear tire, bringing out the red flag, and obviously doesn't continue racing. After the restart, the race continued until it finished, with rookie front-runner [[Jackson Storm]] placing first, with [[Danny Swervez]] placing second, [[Chase Racelott]] in third, and [[Tim Treadless]] ending fourth. | ||
