Where's the entertainment in that?

I wanted to give folks a little sizzle.

- Sizzle?

- Am I sorry I don't have a crew chief?

No, I'm not.

'Cause I'm a one-man show.

What? Oh, yeah, right.

That was a confident

Lightning McQueen.

Live from Victory Lane,

I'm Kori Turbowitz.

- Get outta the shot.

- Yo, Chuck.

Chuck, what are you doing?

You're blockin' the camera!

- Everyone wants to see the bolt.

- What?

- Now, back away.

- That's it! Come on, guys.

- Whoa, team! Where are you going?

- We quit, Mr. One-Man Show!

Oh, OK, leave. Fine.

How will I ever find anyone else

who knows how to fill me up with gas?

[Crowd laughs]

- Adios, Chuck!

- And my name is not Chuck!

Oh, whatever.

Hey, Lightning! Yo! McQueen!

Seriously, that was some

pretty darn nice racin' out there.

- By me!

- Oh, yeah.

- Zinger!

- Welcome to the Chick era, baby!

The Piston Cup...

It's mine, dude. It's mine.

Hey, fellas, how do you think

I'd look in Dinoco blue? Dinoco blue!

In your dreams, Thunder.

Yeah, right. Thunder?

What's he talkin' about, "Thunder"?

You know, 'cause thunder

always comes after lightning.

Ka-ping! Ka-pow!

- Who knew about the thunder thing?

- I didn't.

- Give us the bolt!

- That's right.

Right in the lens.

- Show me the bolt, baby!

- Smile, McQueen!

- Show me the bolt, McQueen!

- That's it!

[Electronic music]

[Crowd chattering]

That was one close finish.

You sure made Dinoco proud.

Thank you, King.

Well, Tex, you've been

good to me all these years.

It's the least I could do.

Whatever happens, you're a winner

to me, you old daddy rabbit.

Thanks, dear.

Wouldn't be nothing without you.

Kch-i-ka-chow!

- I'm Mia.

- I'm Tia.

[Both] We're, like, your biggest fans!

Ka-chow!

I love being me.

- [Police] OK, girls, that's it.

- We love you, Lightning!

[Chuckles]

Hey, buddy.

You're one gutsy racer.

Oh, hey, Mr. The King.

You got more talent in one lug nut

than a lot of cars has got

in their whole body.

- Really? Oh, that...

- But you're stupid.

- Excuse me?

- This ain't a one-man deal, kid.

You need to wise up and get

a good crew chief and a good team.

You ain't gonna win

unless you got good folks behind you,

[voice dwindling] and you let them

do their job, like they should.

- Like I tell the boys at the shop...

- A good team.

- Yeah...

- [electronic music]

Ka-chow! Ka-pow!

[Crowd cheering]

[Screaming]

[Cheering]

Oh, Lightning!

If you figure that out

you just gonna be OK.

Oh, yeah, that...

That is spectacular advice.

Thank you, Mr. The King.

- [Fanfare]

- [Bob] Ladies and gentlemen,

for the first time

in Piston Cup history...

[rewing] A rookie

has won the Piston Cup.
