🩵 “The King,” also known as Strip Weathers, is a legendary race car in Cars modeled after a 1970 Plymouth Superbird and voiced by real-life NASCAR icon Richard Petty. He’s a seven-time Piston Cup champion nearing retirement and serves as a symbol of old-school racing values like humility, sportsmanship, and respect. As the face of Dinoco, he’s admired by younger racers and remains calm and wise, even under pressure. His dramatic crash in the final race highlights the film’s message about integrity, as Lightning McQueen stops short of winning to help him finish with dignity.
