#lightning McQueen and Cruz ramirez

Some Random (Humanized) Cars Headcanons

-Lightning grew out his hair for like six years and then one day just cut it super short.

-Everyone in Radiator Springs lost their minds when he walked in like that.

-He is also the blondest blond man you will ever meet.

-Sally is Hispanic and you can't convince me otherwise. I mean Carrera? Come on now.

-Whenever Lightning, Sally, and Cruz go somewhere just the three of them, people tell Cruz she looks like her mom.

-"But you've got your dad's freckles though!"

-This has made Cruz cry in public multiple times.

-(Sally and Lightning won't admit it, but they've teared up a little too.)

-Lightning's real name is Andrew, but Sally is the only one who knows.

-I feel like Jackson would be Japanese, idk just vibes.

-He's also the biggest mama's boy.

-He's got this thing where he doesn't touch fans in pictures.

-One time Cruz took a picture with him after a race with her arm around his shoulders.

-Fans were speculating for days about whether his personal rule extended to other racers or if Cruz was just special.

-That led to dating rumors.

-"It's the only picture on the internet of him touching another person. There's gotta be something going on!"

-They never addressed any of so it kind of died down.

-At Lightning's last race before Doc died, they took a picture together with his trophy.

-It's hanging in the garage with all the other Doc stuff.

-At some point, Lightning and Cruz take one that is super similar to the other.

-Somehow it gets hung up next to the original picture. (It was Sally)

-This is more of a fic idea, but I've always thought at their ages a lot of Lightning's racing buddies probably have kids that are teenager/young adults.

-So when he would invite the group to Radiator Springs in the off-season, they would bring their kids to hangout to.

-Cruz would get super friendly with all of them and take them racing.

-This probably led to a group of kids dying to become second generation racers.

- Knowing Lightning and his friends, they would eat this up. Taking all of them to train with them. (I mean wouldn't it be so cool if there was a whole group of first and second generation racers. ((Second and third in Lightning and Cruz's case. (((I will be pushing my Doc-Lightning-Cruz father-son/father-daughter agrnda.)))

- My HCs on ships are: Lightning and Sally (That's probably pretty obvious), Cal and Bobby (I've seen this a couple times and everyone's always been really chill about it), Cruz and Jackson (I've been growing super into this one for some reason), and Cruz and Natalie Certain (Not as big on this one, I've seen it a few times and thought it was alright).

Friendly reminder that Lightning McQueen did NOT retire from racing in Cars 3. He only took time off to be Cruz's crew chief until her rookie season was over.

He clearly said after the final race was over, that he wanted to keep racing, since he has a choice now that Sterling is out of the picture thanks to Tex buying Rust-eze.

And when he and Mater meet up with Cruz in Cars on the Road, he says to her that they're both racers now.

Because like McQueen said, HE decides when he's done.

i love cars so fucking much..... i love the way cars is about two desperately lonely racers softened by the generosity and love of other people... love that in cars 3 lightning was forced to interrogate his privilege while also maneuvering through grief and age and change... i love the music, the setting, the reverence for those who came before, i love the fiddle that plays when cruz performs the same move doc performed over sixty years ago... i'm emo

Cars Fandom reunite!!!

To write or not to write? That is the question

So after a long time of disappearing from the Pixar Cars fandom I finally came back and I've been watching all 3 movies and Cars on The Road repeatedly. I just missed it all so much. I started interacting with the fandom again and it made me realise how much I also miss writing fanfics. I really wanted to go back to writing fanfics, but I'm not sure many people would read it seeing as not many people are active anymore. But the few people active here on Tumblr give me hope.

So please help me: should I write my fanfic and see how it goes or should I just let it go??
