Plot
The story involves aspiring-champion racecar Lightning McQueen (probably named after the actor Steve McQueen who also developed a reputation as a world-class race car and motorcycle driver), who is on the fast track to success, fame and everything he has ever hoped for - until he takes an unexpected detour on dusty Route 66. His have-it-all-now attitude is thrown into a tailspin when a small-town community, Radiator Springs, that time forgot, shows McQueen what he has been missing in his high-octane life. Steve McQueen in The Great Escape Steve McQueen (March 24, 1930 – November 7, 1980) was an American movie actor and one of the most popular and highly-successful box-office superstars of the 1960s and 1970s. ...
