Trivia
- Despite die-cast releases affirming that Floyd indeed returns in Cars 3 as the Gaspirin racer, the race car racing for that resembles a fifth generation NASCAR vehicle, whereas Floyd resembles a third generation vehicle; this proves that Floyd retired prior to Cars 3.
- Racing #70 also includes Duke Coulters.
