I feel like beach oevels would be easier for me if I had the dune buggy??? Idk... Are certain vehicles made to be quicker on certain tracks, but slower on others.
I also got a sports car and it does GOD AWFUL on mud levels but great on street levels.

There was a scene where the main characters were driving a go kart/dune buggy through a school or college

Hi all, im returning to RC after nearly 10 years out, previously raced 1/8 buggies at a local track and 1/5 touring cars at a nearby large car park also had a few rc drifters too (tt01 and an sakura d2)
I moved to a new area many years ago and found nowhere to use it all so sold everything up apart from the 1/5 touring car. Looking to get back into it after discovering an rc drift track nearby.
Looks like everyone is running RWD now which was not the done thing when i was driving as it was all 4wd and one way diffs.
What kind of kit should i be looking at and what price range for somthing intermediate. I do still have my radio gear (FRsky GT3b) althogh this may be outdated now?

The wife and I are planning on going to Cabo San Lucas in July. What is the best all inclusive resort? Any recommendations help. We also were looking to do some tours and possibly visiting La Paz for Balandra Beach. We will be in Cabo San Lucas at least for 5 days. It’s our first time there. Thanks in advance 🙏

Contexte: moi (H40) originaire de l'Ouest de la France et habitant en IDF et mes parents (H/F70) qui une fois à la retraite ont quitté l'Ouest pour s'installer en Corse.
​
Le premier problème le plus évident, c'est l'avion pour aller voir ses parents. A raison de deux aller-retours par an, j'atteins le quota à vie de JM Jancovici en faisait les vacances d'été et le jour de Noel.
Mais le problème de fond, c'est surtout eux, qui font facilement 6 aller-retours par an pour aller voir les uns et les autres sur le continent, tout ça en avion.
Sans parler des voyages. Cette année c'est de l'humanitaire au Maroc, et ensuite un voyage imprévu en Islande parce qu'un copain débarque. Ils vont sans doute aussi partir loin en automne histoire de se changer les idées, et n'oublions pas le traditionnel match de Rugby au Pays de Galles de la fin d'année, qui s'ajoutent aux allers-retours précédents.
​
La voiture, c'est juste pas possible, parce que pour faire les courses au supermarché ils prennent un gros Rav 4, c'est à dire un énorme SUV, qui leur donne bonne conscience parce que c'est une hybride électrique. Et comme ils se sont installés dans un lotissement proche de la mer mais loin de toute ville et de tout commerce, il faut tous les jours prendre la voiture pour aller chercher du pain à 5km, ou tout simplement pour s'occuper un peu.
On pourrait penser au vélo, mais la seule route disponible c'est celle qui fait le tour de la Corse et on y côtoie les autobus et les semi-remorques qui roulent à 90 km/h - voire plus car les Corses sont pas trop fan des limitations de vitesse. Je fais du vélo à Paris et en Ile de France, mais en Corse sur ce genre de route je trouve ça vraiment trop dangereux.
​
Et ce qui me gonfle le plus, c'est de prendre la voiture pour aller à la plage. Surtout que la plage, elle est pas loin, littéralement de l'autre coté de la route. Ca se fait en 5 minutes à pied, mais non ils prennent le SUV pour transporter des sièges de plage et des parasols, et aller se faire cuire la peau entre 11H et 14H tous les jours et se préparer au passage un beau cancer qui coutera bien cher à soigner. Perso je refuse et j'y vais toujours à pied.
Alors oui ils ont acheté une maison en haut d'une grosse cote, oui c'est relou à monter à pied, mais ils ont quand même choisi de s'installer là de leur plein gré, donc faut assumer un peu quand même.
​
En Corse il fait chaud. En été c'est à la limite de l'insupportable, donc les gens ont tous la climatisation dans les maisons. Les autorités encouragent même l'installation de pompes à chaleur parce qu’en hiver pour se chauffer ça consomme moins que les convecteurs électriques. Du coup, installer des clims pour refroidir des endroits chauds, c'est limite écolo.
​
Et comme il fait chaud, bien sur, on construit des piscines. Et comme la piscine c'est pas cool quand c'est pas chaud, et bien il y a toute une machinerie pour la chauffer, comme ça on peut avoir de l'eau à 30°C dès le mois de Mai. Super non ?
Mes parents se targuent quand même de remplir leur piscine avec l'eau du robinet, et de ne pas faire comme la plupart des gens ici, des forages illégaux pour avoir de l'eau gratos. On voit de vieilles voisines qui ne comprennent pas pourquoi leur forage ne marche plus.
​
Chez mes parents, en Corse, l'eau du robinet n'est pas très potable. Il y aurait du plomb dans l'eau courante, donc ils boivent de l'eau en bouteille. Heureusement qu'on trouve de l'eau de source Corse qui coute plus cher que la Vittel pour se désaltérer.
​
Heureusement qu'ils font du compost avec leurs épluchures, parce que l'écologie et l'avenir de la planète ça les inquiète et d'ailleurs je devrais en prendre de la graine parce que quand je fais livrer un colis par Amazon c'est moi qui détruit la planète.
​
orz
​
Au secours, que faire pour qu'ils prennent conscience que leur nouveau mode de vie est mauvais sur tellement de points ?

La République Démocratique d'Italie du Nord a déclaré que les opérations militaires se déroulaient sans accro au vue de la situation à l'Est (que je détaillerais plus spécifiquement dans l'épisode 9), étant donné l'importance des moyens conçus pour déployer rapidement les forces armées envers l'ennemi.
Naturellement la République Fédérale d'Italie du Sud n'a pas manqué de répliquer en inventant une excuse pour soi-disant :" déclencher une guerre afin de permettre au communisme de s'installer dans la partie Sud du Pays. Quand bien même ces démonstrations de petites envergure tente par tous les moyens de faire peur à notre pays, nous ne participerons pas à ce genre de manège. Les Américains, nos alliés de longues dates, ont renforcé leurs présence au sein de notre État. Que les communistes du Nord commence à s'inquiéter pour leur futur."
Alors...
Rien, qu'à ce paragraphe (pour parler poliment) nous pouvons voir que leur armée doit être dans un état pitoyable s'ils demandent l'aide Américaine.
Maintenant analysons minutieusement les quelques lignes de leurs "excuses" :

• "Quand bien même ces démonstrations de petites envergure tente par tous les moyens de faire peur à notre pays" : démonstration qui n'était qu'une vingtaine de camions militarisés et quelques lances missiles avec une portée significative... Si seulement vingt camions peut faire trembler à des militaires d'Italiens du Sud, alors nous mettrons une belle Lada en plus. :)
• "nous ne participerons pas à ce genre de manège." : Vous êtes magnifiques, lorsque vous dites ceci. Vous êtes si hypocrites que vous ne vous en rendez même plus compte ! Vous êtes des larbins des lobbies et soumis aux dictats du capitalisme exacerbé ! Vous régnez par la soi-disant peur que nous vous faisons... ça en dit long sur votre manière de penser. Je suppose que vous ne parlez pas des communistes que vous emprisonnez à tour de bras (dans votre pays) afin de "garantir une sécurité plus sûr" ?
• "Les Américains, nos alliés de longues dates, ont renforcé leurs présence au sein de notre État" : je ne dirais que deux choses : C'est bien, et allez voir le petit *.
• "Que les communistes du Nord commence à s'inquiéter pour leur futur." : Je vous retourne la phrase. Inquiétez-vous pour votre futur, car si nous ne sommes plus là (ce qui n'arrivera pas, je peux vous l'assurer), l'Amérique fera en sorte de corrompre vos électeurs afin de mieux servir leurs intérêts. A moins qu'ils ne le font déjà...

Voilà ce qui produit une tension qui ne fait qu'augmenter depuis quelques temps.
Nous verrons bien comment tout cela évoluera.
Vive la R.D.P.R.F !
P.S : *Rappelons d'une chose : l'Amérique peut trahir ses plus fidèles alliés lorsque ceux-ci deviennent trop important.

TL;DR (spoilers): You, and anyone who wants to try the challenge with you if it's a multiplayer game, are a trans ally, and your job is to collect $25,000 or the equivalent thereof in in-game money (rounded up to the next smallest divisible part) for your transgender friend's transition in less than 31 in-game years. Everything is allowed. You do not have to finish the game.
Want a new and interesting way to play your favorite videogame? I got one with a transgender theme that is interesting, challenging, easy to implement, and compatible with almost any videogame, so it's a Mario challenge, a Pokémon challenge, a Minecraft challenge, and so on and so forth, all at the same time!

The Plot

You, and anyone who wants to try the challenge with you if it's a multiplayer game, are a trans ally, and your job is to collect money to pay for your transgender friend's transition. You win by acquiring enough in-game money. You are allowed to consult the internet, use passwords from the internet, commit in-game crimes, purchase microtransactions, abuse glitches, use cheat codes, and even hack the game to reach your goal, but is it really worth the effort? You are kinda expected to use the easiest way to win the challenge that you know of.

The Rules

Rule #1: You have to get the money you need for a transition. In order to make the challenge less boring for you, I did the research for you and came to the result of $25,000. However, this value might change if you try out this challenge in the far future, meaning that this challenge technically changes depending on when you attempt it. The value is expected to rise even further with inflation, or perhaps it might be reduced with the invention of more efficient surgery techniques. If the USA ever starts getting the universal healthcare system or a societal breakdown makes these surgeries impossible, this challenge will refer to the cost of the legal name & gender change, instead. And if that also ever becomes free then just choose a different country where it isn't free yet. But this is not going to change anytime soon (When do you think this challenge will become obsolete?) so, for now, you just have to remember to collect $25,000 in in-game money. This applies to every game that uses $ for in-game money. If the game uses £ or ¥ or € or any other real-world value, you'll have to convert it. Here's an online tool for converting currencies, which also supports various cryptocurrencies and custom rate dates. If the maximum amount of in-game money you can hold at once is less then the challenge is simply impossible. This only applies to non-videogame currencies.
Rule #2: If the in-game currency is fictional then you'll have to convert it (rounded up to the next smallest divisible part). It's easy if you can buy in-game money with real money, even if that feature doesn't work because of a glitch or something. Otherwise, you'll have to do some research. If you can't find any direct information on the internet, I would suggest starting here to get a basic idea on how to calculate that. If there are multiple in-game currencies you are allowed to split the price of the transition among them in any way you want, provided you know the value of all of them. If there is no in-game currency then you are allowed to use points instead. If the game doesn't have points either then you can try to invent a substitute currency but it has to be something that would actually work as a substitute currency in the world you're in. If that's not possible either then the only way for you to win this challenge is to raise real money by doing a let's play of the game. But then you'll have to actually pay for a real trans person's transition (yourself included) or donate the money to transgender-related causes to actually win the challenge. Here's a website that lets you donate for transgender causes. If the amount of in-game money you can hold at once is less or you were unable to find out how much you need then you are also allowed to simply collect the maximum possible amount instead because games will never ask you for more money than you can hold for a single product, meaning that this would have to be the in-game prize of a transition, as transitions are always for only a single person. This only applies to videogame currencies.
Rule #3: You do not need to finish the game. All you need to do to win this challenge is to get the money somehow. Please keep in mind that the exchange rate isn't constant. The exact amount you need to win the challenge has to be enough in the moment when you have the amount. You automatically win the challenge the moment this is the case.
Rule #4: You need to get the money in less than 31 in-game years. This number was calculated by subtracting the age at which children begin to have an innate sense of their own gender (4 years) from the average lifespan of a trans person (35 years). If the game has time-travelling elements, you are allowed to use those to extend the time limit. However, it only counts if this actually involves time itself and not just the timer. The same also goes the other way around: Travelling into the future or even moving in relativistic speeds will decrease the time limit. If the time limit runs out, I hope you have a way to return back to the past later!
Rule #5: If you can choose between multiple difficulty settings, you are allowed to choose the easiest one. In fact, you are expected to. Trans people are already on hard mode and the idea of being an ally is to specifically use the possibilities given to you to help those with fewer possibilities than you. If you have the option to select an easier difficulty setting which would make it easier for you to win this challenge, use it. Even if you're already used to playing on a higher difficulty mode. Not doing so would be considered bad strategy on your part. You are allowed to choose a higher difficulty setting, but please only do so if this actually gives you some advantages, like more rewards, more levels, or faster gameplay. This challenge gives you no bonus points for selecting a higher difficulty setting.
Rule #6: Emulation, and all tricks that come with it, are explicitly allowed. Doing so might be against the law but it is explicitly not against the rules of this challenge. The reason for this is because being transgender has been illegal for a long time and still is in many states, forcing many people to break the law in order to live their lives. The police have historically targeted trans and gender non-conforming folks. Stonewall was a riot against police brutality. I am not advocating for doing anything illegal. I am, however, saying that you should never use the law to argue for the morality of anything trans-related, as doing so would be disrespectful towards a huge part of transgender history. Therefore, this rule will remain in effect even if being transgender ever becomes legal worldwide.
In order to make the challenge even less boring for you, I have started researching loads of fictional currencies and how much money you would have to collect there for this challenge so you don't have to.

World of Warships - 9,375,000,000 Credits or 6,250,000 Doubloons
Zelda - 999 Rupees
The values are not guaranteed to be accurate. In fact, I have found many cases of contradictory information on the internet. But you don't care about that anyway, do you? This isn't about the exact value anyway. These are all meant to be rough estimates to give you a sense of scale.

The Motivation

I was inspired by my Pokémon Trans Ally challenge that is about collecting money for a trans person's surgery. If you actually attempt this challenge you'll see that it'll usually be a very long and tedious challenge that will require a lot of experimentation, long-term planning, and doing the same things over and over again for a very long time, especially if you wanna try this as a speedrun. If the challenge bores you out, well, that is the point! The challenge is meant to give people with little or no sense of money an impression of how much money this really is! Now, you could argue that this challenge could theoretically be used to visualize any amount of money, and you would technically be correct, but I still think that a transgender transition is one of the best matches for this challenge because:

1. A transition is always only for one person. We aren't talking about a company buying another company or a country investing in more infrastructure. This is something within the realm of a single person so it makes sense to have this be a challenge for a single person or a small group.
2. This is not a luxury item like a famous painting or a private jet. Overwhelming scientific evidence proves that this is a medical necessity that trans people require in order to live like the majority of people. It is not something you want but something you need. So you can really say that acquiring all this money is really something that they have to go through. Therefore, unless you are transgender yourself, I would really recommend you to actually play the challenge until the end, even if it takes you years to actually do so. Not for your enjoyment but to acknowledge trans people's struggles and maybe also to protest against the gatekeeping system.
3. Unlike people who regularly need medications, the transgender transition is a once-in-a-lifetime thing and is therefore compatible with a challenge that you only play through once and then never again.
4. Once your transition is over, it cannot be taken from you.
5. It is not possible to request the costs to be paid for you if you can prove that you cannot afford it, meaning the only way to get it is to actually get the money.
6. Being trans is not an illness or a disability. Trans people never did anything wrong, neither deliberately nor accidentally. They are simply born with a condition that requires them to get the money. Trans people are therefore as guilt-free as a typical videogame hero.

Do you know anything more expensive that fulfills all those criteria?

The Fun Facts

• If you collect 1,000,000 coins in Super Mario Bros. 2, you win a golden Mario statue. This is actually more money than required for the trans ally challenge!
• If payment by installments were supported by this challenge then the most cumbersome game to do this challenge in would be The Binding of Isaac, because that would require you to send at least 25,253 installments. You would have to max out your money counter every 10¾ hours on average.
• You immediately win the challenge if you try it on a game where the money you start with is already high enough. For example, in the game The Roll Ahead, you play as either Bill Gates or Steve Jobs and you start out with 35 Billion.
• In the game Anti-Monopoly, you win by losing your money. However, if you try this challenge in this game, you'll still have to gain money. This is kinda the opposite of a coinless challenge because where a coinless challenge makes positive money negative, this challenge makes negative money positive.
• Characters like the monk from Crypt of the NecroDancer, Entity from depict1, and Default Dan from Default Dan die upon touching money. Kinda makes you think, doesn't it?
• The purple coins in the Super Mario Galaxy series, the Butz in Kappa Mikey, the Glotkies in Taxi, the coins in Syobon Action, and the Rasbukniks in Li'l Abner are worth nothing.
• If World of Anime Babes was a real game then this challenge would require 1,250,000,000 tokens. As the narrator said: "Big numbers are better, right?" One way to get this money would be by selling like 1,000 in-game outfits.
• If you are playing a game taking place in the medieval time, the challenge would require you to get 411¼ medieval pennies.
• If you wanna make the monetary values more immersive, you can look at how they are depicted in the menu of microtransactions. For example, Clash of Clans groups predefined values of gems into bags, sacks, boxes, and chests that therefore represent specific amounts of gems and could therefore be regarded as higher currency units. For example, 2,500,000 gems fit into 179 chests. Sure, this won't help you with strategizing, but it will certainly make it more interesting for your audience!
• According to this article, this challenge would require you to get 129,058,751 Simeons. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to determine which franchise Simeons are from.
• The Ztars from Mario Party and the Rupoors from The Legend of Zelda are currencies that actually take money away from you, making their exchange rates negative!
• If Terrance & Phillip: Give Us Your Money was a real game then this challenge would require 10,204,200 Canadian Coins. This value was calculated under the assumption that everyone would realize that the cheapest deal is actually the best deal. One way to get this money would be by not playing the game 2,041 times. Oh good, you're already on it. But will you make it within the time limit?
• The values of LEGO Studs were calculated using the value of a human life. If you applied this logic to every game with currency units that are worth ¹⁄₁₀₀ life each then a single one of those currency units would already be enough to win this challenge and if you applied this logic to every game where 10,000 points give you an extra life then this challenge would require you to earn 32 points, but only if there isn't already an in-game currency.
• The fictional currency with the highest inflation rate I could find was in Elbonia, the rate being 1,000,000,000% daily. Despite the high time limit, I would recommend you to hurry with getting enough money there if you even can.
• The average age at the time the RTS Rise of Nations takes place in was roughly 31 years, which would reduce this challenge's time limit to 27 in-game years at most. Which would be about 2.08 real-time seconds according to estimations made by PeanutButterGamer, according to which the time limit for Diablo would be 6 in-game years and the challenge would be impossible for SimAnt.
• For obvious reasons, a society can only survive if its maximum lifespan is at least the minimum age of fertility. Due to precocious puberty, the world records for the youngest biological parents are 9 years for microgametic parents and 5 years and 7 months for macrogametic parents, meaning that the maximum lifespan of any human society must always be at least 9 years. Since 9 years are more than 4 years, it therefore follows that transgender healthcare benefits all possible human societies. Remember this if you ever attempt this challenge on a game that takes place in a society where these values are different for whatever reason, like a society of anthropomorphic animals for example.
• If the average lifespan was less than 4 years then the average lifespan of a trans person would actually be higher than the average lifespan as a whole. This is because trans people who die before the age of 4 would not be included in the statistic, due to being undetectable. If that happens, you'll have to recalculate what the statistic would be.
• Transgender surgery is older than the discovery of Pluto, modern toilet paper, chicken tikka masala, duct tape, ballpoint pens, ciabatta bread, Velcro, and Tupperware.
• The Wumpa Fruit from Crash Bandicoot are also a form of currency, as was revealed in some games. A Wumpa Fruit is worth exactly the same as a piece of gold in Skylanders. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find out what either of those are worth.
• The most valuable fictional currency that I could find was the Aqua from High Frontier 4 All, which is estimated to be a three-digit million $ amount.
• Team Kirby Clash Deluxe and Super Kirby Clash value Gem Apples differently. I based their value on Super Kirby Clash because Team Kirby Crash Deluxe only lets you purchase a maximum of 3,000 Gem Apples, meaning that Super Kirby Clash would be more practical for purchases over $29.85. Noone would accept a payment of 838 installments if a more practical way of payment is possible.
• This challenge would require 2,500,000 Nuggets in the game PokéHeroes but I didn't add it to the list because it's a fangame and I didn't wanna confuse.

/uj If you donate gold in Gaia Online, the company will donate money to charity. I find this mechanic to be a really good idea and I would like to see it more often because it enables players to support the less fortunate without having to donate their own money. Just imagine if every game on this list gave you the option to donate $25,000 worth of in-game money which would then be donated to transgender causes and unlock the Trans Ally achievement! I know it would be very cumbersome to unlock, but completionists would definitely go for it and also, it would be done for a good cause!

Chapter 5:
FALLING LIKE DOMINOS
^{They’ve got the moves!}

Like a cackle of hyenas, the peaceful silence of the desert was broken by the despotic laughter of raiders (the ‘Rust Fiendz’ as they like to call themselves) riding in the night, their vehicles kicking up a large cloud of sand in their wake, and the smell of motor oil, sulfur, iron, and death tailing them as they drove off from one of their latest hits.
In the cabins of each rusted-to-hell pile of scrap on wheels, their jury-rigged radio crackles to life. The constant whine of static and electrical buzzing is punched through by a haughty voice. “Hey good shit back there, boys!” the gruff voice barks. Over the din of motors and engines, the roar of various vehicles’ occupants punches through, their raucous cheers just as vicious and loud as their dilapidated chariots. At the head of the pack of these rusted raiders was a heavily modified pickup truck that looked more akin to a sheet-metal sarcophagus that crashed through a hot-topic, a fitting final resting place for their war chief.
“Shit,” he snickers to himself, reveling in his recently ill-gotten spoils as he plunges a hand through a roughly made sack made out of a mysterious hide; whether it’s human or an animal remains a mystery. “Dumbass motherfuckers. Why do these starry-eyed jackasses keep trying?” He pulls out a bottle of spirits, the label reading: ‘Whiskey Rose brewery--A Cassidy Venture.’ Rolling down the window, he breaks the top of the bottle like the fucking barbarian he is and downs the bottle. “Whatever, not so starry-eyed anymore,” he snickers to himself, recounting the way his latest victim’s eyes clouded as she lay bleeding on the half-built foundation of the colony’s brewing facility. “As long as the hive lords keep paying, there’s no need for me to ask questions. ‘Sides these colony upstarts need a fucking reality check anyways.” Tossing the bottle out the window and rolling it up, he stops midway and watches through the rear-view mirror as the empty glass bottle collides in the face of one the scouts. The man lets out a high-pitched yelp as he goes tumbling off his motorcycle and is quickly crushed under the wheels of the others. “Hey dipshits look out next time!” he shouts out as he finishes rolling up the window. Without another look back the war chief focuses on the sands in front of him, not bothering to notice the smaller cloud of sand blending in behind the group.
-------------
“C’mon, come on!” Carmine hisses through gritted teeth. He lets go of the wheel, allowing the cruise control to stay on the path towards their target as he checks the chamber of his pistol. Meanwhile, Victor preemptively loads the makeshift crossbow with a tracker bolt, and Devin pulls back the bolt of the machine gun and begins assessing priority targets. “Devin!”
“Yeh chief? Devin answers back.
“I want a spotter report before we get any closer!”
“On it buddy!” With that, Devin pulls out a periscope and uses it to peek over without exposing himself from the safety of the gunner’s nest confines. He catches a glimpse of some poor bastard falling out into the desert sands and promptly being turned into a fine human pâté under the wheels of his fellow raiders. Devin winces at the sight but then smiles rather smugly. “Well, that’s one to scratch off the list. Fucker probably deserved it,” he mutters to himself. “Oi Carmine good news!”
“What is it?”
“Is god gonna smite them for us?” Victor interjects.
Devin shakes his head for no one to see. “Nah, I fucking wish. We were going to be dealing with eight scouts, six technicals, and king mong over there. However, it seems that we can scratch off a scout, cause the dumbass somehow managed to fall off his bike.”
Victor sucks air through his teeth at the news. “Bitch got smeared across the sand by his own buddies. Sucks to be that loser.”
Carmine snorts and chuckles to himself. “Bitch deserved it. Hey Devin, soon as a bunch of them group up give ‘em a taste of the beans. Save the actual HE round for king doitch bag over there.”
“Got it.” There’s a pregnant pause between all three of them as they see three of the scouts and a technical start slowing down from the main group and approaching them. “Oh shit, here comes a gaggle of them now.” Wordlessly, the trio goes to meet them, each of them readying themselves for the fight ahead. “Hey, Carmine, blast the radio; It’ll make us aim better.”
“Whose playlist is on right now?”
Victor rolls down the window and props himself out with his assault rifle at the ready. “Don’t know. It’s either yours, Devin’s, or any one of our granddad’s playlist. We all know that all your grandad listened to was ‘fortunate son’!”
“Oh, fuck off Victor!”
“The joke will never die! Besides, at least your grandad was different. Devin and my grandpa were practically the same person, they even had an on-going list on all the same ideas they had and even the same things they said... Well, what are you waiting for? Play that shit!” Victor shouts over the wind rushing past.
“They were brothers all the same, just as we are now!” Carmine shouts back. “Alright, playing that shit!” Carmine jams a finger into one of the old, faded buttons of the decrepit radio. It takes a moment before it comes to life. The static fading away until suddenly crisp, clear, energetic music starts blasting from the speakers, and the trio are greeted with the steady beat of a tambourine. “Fuck! Could be any one of ours!” Carmine shouts over as a guitar joins in on the fun, followed by drums hot on its tail.
​

All the old paintings on the tombs
They do the sand dance don’t you know?
If they move too quick. (Oh Whey oh!)

​
“Bitching!” Devin shouts, loading in one of the makeshift rounds for the grenade launcher.
-------------
Three scouts, having watched one of their own get crushed under the wheels of their fellow Rust Fiendz, group up together and begin to slow down to lag behind the rest of the pack, not wanting to take the chance of watering the sand in their own blood and viscera due to others’ disregard of life.
“Hey!” One of them shouts, getting the attention of the others. “Who the hell are those jobbers tailing us?”
“’ow the fack should I know?” One of them barks back.
“Well figure it the fuck out because they don’t look like one of ours. Their ride looks too clean and purdy to be one of us. You!” He points to the third, “Go flag one of the more sober guys up there and tell him to back us up.”
“Wait. What the hell why me dipshit?!” He protests.
“Because I said so fuckwad. Unless you want to be fly food smeared across the sand, I suggest you do it.” The third scout relents and goes to one of the technicals up ahead to request help. “Good, we have a new pecking order established now.”
The second scout looks at the self-appointed head incredulously. “The ‘ell there is! I never ‘oted yew to be boss of the scouts!”
“Your fault for not stepping up. Now shut up. From what happened up ahead I don’t think the boss wants anyone bothering him and those party crashers are getting closer. Get ready and bitch boy and motor cuck are coming over to back us up.” The self-appointed head turns around heads off for the armored car coming up on their rear.
“Mutha fucka!” the second bitterly swears. “The ‘ell is that music anyways?”
-------------
Devin stands up and positions himself over the gunner’s nest, eagerly bobbing his head along with the music as he leads the shot on the approaching raiders. Carmine for his part begins steadily speeding up to meet them.
“I’m gonna show these fuckers what real desert heat is!” Victor excitedly shouts over the music. He racks the bolt on the assault rifle and begins taking aim himself.
​

All the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles (Oh whey oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette.

​
The music starts ramping up now as Carmine floors the gas causing the RPM to sharply rise to the redline and all the men begin harmonizing with music.
​

Foreign types with the hookah pipes say

​
“WHHHEEYYY OOHHH WHHEEY OH, AAAYYY OOHH WHHEEYY OOHH!” They sing together.
​

Walk like an Egyptian...

​
And like that the music dies down for a moment leaving only the strumming of the electric guitar and the methodical shaking of the tambourines. Everyone holds their breath while they focus on the four hostiles coming at them head on. Each one of the men’s eyes dilating like a cat’s, just waiting for the moment to pounce.
...
...
“Closer.” All that’s left is the tambourine, it’s rhythm in sync with the beating of their hearts in their eardrums.
...
...
“Closer.” They all think to themselves, their adrenaline and testosterone building up in anticipation. The guitars make their presence known drowning out the noisy racket of the raiders. Tensions continue to rise until suddenly!
Dun dododo dun dun
Dun dododo dun DUN
DUN DODODO DUN *THOONK\*
Devin fires the grenade launcher, and shots begin to ring out alongside the strums of the guitar. As if on cue, the singer returns, her voice coming in right on time as the bean can explodes, sending bits of tin and whatever else they could stuff in there as makeshift shrapnel, taking out the scouts and flipping over the technical on its side like a wounded ox.
​

The blonde waitresses take their trays
They spin around and they cross the floor
They’ve got the moves! (OOHHH WHHEEEYY OOHHH!)
You drop your drink, then they bring you more!

​
-------------
The sudden shots and the explosion bring the rest of the raiders out of their revelry as each and every one of them sobers up and checks their rear-view mirrors. They watch in surprise as one of their own is flipped onto its side by an unknown assailant. None of them are able to get a good look until the cloud of smoke passes and an armored car in better conditions than theirs rides up to the flipped technical and throws a firebomb onto it, followed by a staccato of gunfire from someone leaning out the passenger side window with nonsensical music playing.
You drop your drink, then they bring you more!
(That drink being the firebomb that was force fed into that poor fucker.)
There is a collective moment of “Oh Shit” between the Rust Fiendz as the single communal braincell bounces in out of the skulls of all the members. Some of them panic, while the drunker ones, angered by this party crasher, make a sloppy U-turn and go to face this suicidal nimrod head-on.
-------------
Carmine pounds the wheel and shouts, “FUCK YEAH GUYS! GOOD SHIT RIGHT THERE!”
“Hell yeah brother!” Victor shouts, all the while Devin begins cackling like a madman over the destruction they had caused. Devin’s cackling is quickly cut short as he hears the pained groans of a poor, unfortunate scout that was badly maimed by the dollar store dumpster frag. Nonchalantly, he brings out his carbine and double taps the raider for good measure and goes back to cackling.
​

All the kids so sick of books
They like the punk and the metal band

​
A honk from the horn cuts Devin and Victor’s celebration short as they see two more technicals and the last of the scouts coming their way.
​

When the buzzer rings (OOHH WWHHEEYY OOHH!)
They’re walking like an Egyptian

​
“That’s our cue guys, get ready!” Carmine calls out.
Devin fires another shot of the grenade launcher at the oncoming enemies, but the effect isn’t as spectacular as last time as the makeshift bean can round manages to dent one of the technicals but bounces off the hood and into the sand. “Fuck a dud!” Devin curses.
“Get on the turret and start blasting Devin!”
“Orders received!” Devin ducks back into the safety of the gunner’s nest right on time too as wild and erratic shots ping off of it. Before he can rack the bolt and begin firing, a thunderous blast disorients him and knocks him against the walls as the whole armored car shakes and sand rains down from above him. Drunkenly, he rubs the back of his head but is caught off guard by his helmet getting away. “Da fuckz wah that?” he slurred out.
Victor ducks down as bullets rattle on the hood of the car and junk rounds begin ricocheting off the armored grill covering the windshield, some of them managing to thread the needle and lodge themselves in the damaged bulletproof glass. “An explosion dipshit. Now-,” Victor covers his head and blind fires out the window towards the oncoming raiders. “GET ON THE FUCKING GUN!” he hurriedly shouts.
“Son of a-bitch goddamn mother *rrghh\*” Devin growls. Shaking his head and racking the bolt of the heavily bubba’ed FAL, he grits his teeth and takes aim. As the scouts get closer, they notice the gunner’s nest moving and begin concentrating their fire on the turret and spreading out. The sudden spray of bullets causes Devin to flinch and wince at the sparks and sharp sounds of scrap bullets on metal, but he clenches his jaw and fires an unfocused burst at one of the scouts. Devin’s shots go wide as Carmine begins speeding ahead and whipping the car violently left and right, either to try and ram some of the scouts or to throw off the aim of the technical firing the explosives.
​

All the kids in the marketplace say
(WHEEY OHH WHHEEYYY OOHH, AAYY OH WHEY OH!)
Walk like an Egyptian...

​
The music is abruptly cut off as another explosion rocks the speeding armored car and the radio cuts off. “FUCK DUDE!” Carmine shouts out.
“What. What! WHAT!” Victor rushes out, dipping back in from the passenger window and narrowly avoiding a spray of bullets from a scout coming up on their rear.
Before Carmine could get out a sentence one of the technicals that had been acting as cover for the other slows down and positions itself on Carmine’s side. Several shots ring out and manage to get through the grate that acted as armor for the driver side window. Victor watches on in horror as three heavy *THUNKS\* can be heard following by Carmine groaning and buckling. Carmine’s head slams on the wheel violently and he ends up honking the horn before snapping back up and firing his pistol at the offending technical.
“ASSHOLES!” Carmine curses. “Devin light those fuckers up on our right!” A violent rhythmic roar can be heard above them as Devin sprays the machine gun with extreme discrimination at the flanking technical. The screams of the raiders are drowned out by the gunfire before their vehicle begins to slow down and all noise from the raider’s Humvee ceases, all except a pitiful mechanical sputtering. The spraying resumes as Devin now has a clear shot on the technical that had been launching the explosives at them. The Rusted Sedan tries to bob and weave out of the shots until something explodes in the back and the car cartoonishly bounces on the sand.
“Fuck,” Devin heavily breathes out. Checking the scuffed belt feeding ammunition into the machine gun, he grimaces at the count and shakes his head. “Eighty-four rounds left. Fuck eighty-four rounds left,” he repeats to himself. “Well let’s see if I can’t rat my out of this one!” Cautiously he peeks his head out from the nest and sees two scouts behind the car taking pot shots at the rear-view window. Thankfully Carmine had the foresight to mount his ballistic shield to the back, but how long it’d hold was the question that worried Devin the most. “Hey, Carmine!”
“Urgh! Ah-Y-yeah Devin?”
“I need you to start doing some shit!”
“What kind of shit!” Carmine takes another shot to the side of his enclosed helmet and one to the side of his chest plate, the bullets not getting through but still managing to cause him to flinch and bruise from the force. He snaps his head to the scout, and the scout, now realizing how much she fucked up begins clutching the break of her ATV. Her ATV doesn’t slow down in time as Carmine fires three shots at her. One of the shots goes wide and misses, the second grazes her arm, but the third pierces her throat. She clutches at her throat with one and falls backward, one hand still death gripping the brake, the uneven steering and the violent braking causes the ATV to flip.
“I need you start swerving around and make these bastards on our tail get closer so I can nail them with the last bean can!”
Victor fires another burst taking out a scout that had been harassing the passenger side of the car. Overhearing the conversation, he taps Carmine’s sides and gets his attention. “Or what we could do. Hey Devin, how close are they!”
“They’re pretty close Victor!”
“How close?”
“About mouth to exhaust pipe distance! Why?” The realization dawns on Devin as he ducks back down to avoid the shots and he promptly gets back on the turret and focuses on ahead.
“Okay, thank you!” Turning his attention back to Carmine, Victor says, “Slam the brakes, this is going to be funny.”
“Oh, fuck yeah!” Carmine laughs out. Carmine abruptly slams on the brakes of the car, it takes a moment as the wheels fail to find traction on the sand, but it isn’t too long as a violent crash and shake of the car tells them as much. “Shit, one of them had a brain cell to rub between their fingers.” Luckily fortune was on their side as the sudden jolt from one of the scouts crashing into them managed to jolt the radio back to life. Unfortunately, though, one of the scouts speeds past them.
The trio lets out an elated cry as the music comes back on, but the elation is short lived as a frustrated shout from Devin alerts them to some unfortunate news. “Fuck he’s getting away and the rest of those braindead barbarians are heading into that sandstorm!”
Carmine steps on the gas and starts chasing after him and Victor leans out the window and takes aim with the crossbow. “Yeah, no we don’t do that here,” Victor states matter-of-factly. “Carmine step on it I want to make sure I land this.”
Carmine nods and tightens his grip on the wheel as the RPM hits the redline once more. “Alright hold on!”
The last scout looks behind himself as the sound of death rumbles like an engine getting pushed to its limits. Seeing how quickly the armored car is gaining on him, he hunches over and begins silently praying for mercy. His prayers are cut short as he feels a sharp pain pierce through his lower back, and he begins swerving wildly into the sandstorm, following the taillights and silhouettes of the other technicals as best he can through the storm.
Victor brings out a tracker and begins monitoring the tracker bolt. “And now we follow him through the storm.”
Devin hunkers down and suddenly jolts, a new fun idea pops up in his head. “Hey Carmine, pause the music. We’re going to be making an entrance!”
-------------
In the middle of the sandstorm the Rust Fiendz bicker and panic amongst themselves through their radios.
“Who the fuck were those guys?!”
“How the hell am I supposed to know!”
“Are you retarded! The Hive lords probably had enough of our shit. They sent someone to kill us!”
“We’re all going to di-“
“SHUT THE FUCK YOU WASTERS AND LISTEN HERE!” Their warchief screams over the radio, the sheer volume of causing the sound quality to warp and distort the audio of their poorly maintained radios. “We probably lost those jackasses in the storm by now, just keep driving. Furiosa!” He calls out.
“Furiosa you useless bitch! Answer me!” he angrily shouts again through the radio.
A calm voice, much too calm and collected to be a raider answers him back, “We’re almost out of the storm boss. It won’t be too long now.”
The warchief throws up a hand in exasperation. “Now you fucking answer.”
“Apologies sir, I was focusing.” She replies, her voice showing no hint of emotion.
“Yeah, well next time do it quicker.”
“Yes sir.”
The Rust Fiendz keep a tight formation as they follow Furiosa’s dune buggy as it takes the lead and guides them out of the storm. Once they’re out of the storm, Furiosa circles around and parks next to the Warchief’s pickup truck. Her vehicle compared to the rest of the group is well maintained with only light rusting here and there.
“Wait holy shit! The hell is that coming at us!” One of the raiders shout out over the radio.
Everyone draws their respective firearms and aims it at the red blinking light coming at them from the depths of the sandstorm. The air is suffocating now as the red gets closer and closer; it’s blinking becoming more rapid and it’s light brighter and brighter. All of them tense up as they hear an engine’s rumble get closer until suddenly something bursts out from the storm and everyone begins indiscriminately blasting at whatever had made the mistake of fucking with their crew.
The gun fire and shooting lasts for a good solid minute, the bullets kicking up sand, the muzzle flash lights the midnight sky and the smoke obscures everyone’s vision. Eventually the shots die down and so does the smoke revealing.
“H-Holy fuck!”
“You GODDAMN IDIOTS!” The Warchief shouts as everyone takes a good look at the swiss-cheesed remains of the last scout and the unidentifiable heap of scrap that was his vehicle. Before the Warchief could shout anymore abuse and obscenities at his band of idiots and jackasses.
Furiosa, the only competent member, says something over the radio. “Listen!” Everyone stops what they’re doing and does as she says. They listen intently and all they can hear is the rumble of their engines, the howling sandstorm and...
“Whistling?”
The whistling is distant, but overtime it gets louder and louder until they also hear the sounds of-
“Are those fucking guitars?”
“I hear a rattle...”
​

Slide your feet up the street, bend your back

​
“Is that singing?”
​

Shift your arm then you pull it back

​
Everyone’s collective blood runs cold as the familiar tune starts playing through the sandstorm and the sound of an engine gets louder and louder.
Life is hard don’t you know
And then once more silence.
...
...
...
“The fuck did it-“
For once in the Rust Fiendz collective lives, they did something in unison. They screamed as an armored car with people shouting-
​

"OOOOHHH WWHHHEEYYY OOOHHH!"

​
Landed on and crushed the occupants of a Cadillac, scratching another off their list of technicals.
​

SO STRIKE A POSE ON A CADILLAC

​

Chapter 6:
IN AN ESCAPE POD WONDERING IF THIS TRULY IS THE LAST
^{静けさが追いつめる}

“OH BY THE COMMON GOOD WHY! WHY! WHY!?” Cried Akali as one of the buttons he pressed only caused the escape pod to accelerate even faster. He clutched the sides of his head and began pacing in circles.
​
“How do I always get myself into these sorts of situations?!” he desperately shouted his hands grasping at the air, helplessly reaching out for something that wasn’t. He asked the question over and over again, but his desperate cries were answered only by the deafening roar of the escape pods thruster as it hurtled through space.

The escape pod blared.
“W-what is it now!” Quickly Akali rushed over to the main console of the escape pod to see what else the universe wanted to add to his woes. His eyes widened and all the feathers on his cobra-like hood flared out, a primordial fight or flight response to scare off predators or to make oneself blend better with shrubs and bushes to ambush prey. However, this response would do nothing as he couldn’t scare a console, nor were there any bushes to hide in from the decrepit satellites.



And like that hope was reignited in Akali as he frantically reached for the glove compartment, his hands fumbling the latch to open it. Each time it did his heart rate would spike until. “YES FINALLY!” He triumphantly shouted as he opened up the glove compartment. Instantly he looked down and all that met him was a pocket of darkness as black as the void around him as the glove compartment was empty. Save for a hastily written note that read.
The User Manual is currently being inspected by Health and Safety Specialist: Orza T’igalma. Please DO NOT use the Escape pod during this inspection period.
~Yours truly Cleaning and Maintenance Specialist ‘Gumpy’
P.S. Stop calling me a Janitor. I am a Cleaning and Maintenance Specialist dammit!
The light in Akali’s eyes faded out upon reading the note. His mind shutting off completely, tuning out the rattling and occasional impact that shook the escape pod as it barreled through the halo of space debris and satellites that surrounded the dead planet that the escape pod was on a hell-bent collision course towards. However, his mind was able to think of one thing; the crewmember he had encountered during his rush to get to his uncle, the various signs that got knocked out during his collision with said crewmember, and even the janitor’s scrubs that the crewmember wore. Then the pieces started fitting together; and he realized that one of those signs looked oddly like the one used for escape pods back on the station he was previously on.
The feathers on his hood spiked up as he let out a primal screech, “LORD GIVE ME ONE MORE CHANCE SO THAT I CAN MURDER THAT MANGY LO’HAAANNN!!”
-------------
Meanwhile on the Great Endeavor.
Several members of The Great Endeavor’s security team rushed to the escape pods; the order had just been given. It was a ‘Centauri protocol’ which called for the security team’s best equipment and their best members.
“What in Hel’s embrace?” One of the Vicaik members exclaimed.
“What?” One of them asked.
“Where the Hel are the signs?”
“What signs?”
“The signs.” The Vicaik stated again, pointing at the empty mounts and missing placards. The other members began looking around and sure enough, the signs were gone.
“It shouldn’t even matter. We know where they are,” One of the members said dismissively.
“I know that, but isn’t the captain’s nephew new?”
One of the crewmembers pauses at this and strokes their chin at the observation. “By about... a little less than a week why?”
...
...
The Vicaik slaps a heavy paw to their forehead. “Shit, that explains it!” He exclaims.
“Explains what?”
“He probably didn’t even memorize the layout! Also, that janitor probably screwed up some of the electrical systems while cleaning and probably shorted out some of the signs.”
“And?”
“You know what he always does. He always takes the damn signs to electrical to ‘have them fixed’. Before the Vicaik can elaborate more on the topic, an alert on their PDA’s draws their attention.

A.N: Hope you guys liked this chapter.
Also, Question: Should I make the chapters their own separate posts or should I keep doing what I'm doing now? Any other feedback, critiques, or criticisms are very much welcome.

This is not an exact remake of Cars Race O Rama, but rather a reboot/retake of the game. Some aspects of the game are the same, while others are different. Also, Since this will take a while to explain, this will be split into two posts. Anyways, let's get into the game:
Lightning Mcqueen, no longer racing for the Piston Cup, is competing in the historic Race O Rama Series for the Race O Rama trophy at the Rust-Eze speedway in an undisclosed location, alongside his 4 Next-Gen students from the Rust-eze Dinoco Racing Center, rather than the Honda Civic-like Racers from the Doc Hudson Racing Academy, though they are painted the same Color Schemes, whom are Connor Tormaski, Aiden, Shiram, and Sudeep. They're competing against 4 other Next-Gen racers with the same paint schemes, albeit green instead of blue. Mcqueen wins the race easily, since while the students are all Next-Gens, they are VERY inexperienced compared to Mcqueen. However, the green students deliberately crash Mcqueen's students. Mcqueen is furious at their poor sportscarship, and demands to know who taught them to race like they did. The Students happily oblige, by revealing none other than Chick Hicks. He's had his own racing academy for a while, and he's taught his students to race HIS way: Cheating! Mcqueen tells Chick off, and that cheaters never win. Chick reveals his big plan to win the Race O Rama Series and shut down the Rust-eze Dinoco Racing Center, forcing all racers to learn from him. He also threatens to take over Radiator Springs as well. Mcqueen accepts his challenge, before calling Chick thunder again, because thunder always come after "lightning". Chick then states that he doesn't know why he keeps falling for that. Mcqueen then does more races in the unconventional racing facility before returning to Radiator Springs to do more training back on his home turf.
Meanwhile, in Ornament valley, Mater encounters his old rivals Bubba and the Taters in front of the Rustbucket stadium. Bubba introduces himself and his minions and tells Mater about the time they agreed to race for the towing rights to Radiator Springs. Mater races against Tater Sr. alongside his Cousins & Sarge, and easily wins this race, though Bubba proclaims that Tater was only warming up, and that he'd be ready for his big race.
In Santa Carburera, a Beach Town, Lightning Mcqueen customizes himself with sand tires on big, silver rims, a low bodykit, a carbon fibre spoiler, and sea air resistant paint. Lightning also meets Cruz Ramirez training her. Mcqueen and his students then meet up with the first of several racing gangs: The Exoticas, a team of 4 exotic cars, who consist of a red Ferrari, his Porsche 911 Girlfriend, a BMW I8, and her Lamborghini adoptive brother. They race around Santa Carburera, with Mcqueen's team winning. The team then races against Chick's Academy again, before then meeting up with the Posh Princes, the 4 Gentlemen Cars from Cars (The Game), and Maternational (Look them up for more details), winning against them as well. They then meet up with the Beach Blazers, a team of 4 hot shot beach buggies. The two teams race entirely on the beach. After the race, Mcqueen, Connor, and Flo find out the Exoticas have been wrecked by Chick's students during a race they had while Mcqueen was racing the Beach Blazers, alongside a Pink female exotic car. Chick then shows up, Intoducing the Pink Car as Candice. Mcqueen, Flo, and Connor race her, defeating her. After Mcqueen's Victory, Candice freaks out, demands her father for new everything, and then leaves to do some shopping, with Flo and Mcqueen making witty comments, before departing for home.
Back in Ornament Valley, Mater and the Taters realize that their names rhyme, leaving to find more things that rhyme with their names, having another race in the process. Bubba just says the three couldn't spell "I.Q" if he spotted them the "I".
In Autovia, an Industrial Desert Area, Mcqueen Customizes himself with an off-road getup akin to his getup in the Radiator Springs 500 1/2, albeit with his ducktail spoiler, and Rust-Eze Logos in place of his Piston Cup and Radiator Springs Logos. Meanwhile, a ton of Chick's Lesser Students head through the MotorCo. Building, becoming the VINs, white robotic stock cars, although this time they resemble their appearances from the concept art of the original game, abeit Next-Gen Like. Mcqueen's team then meets up with the Rally Rompers, an overly-ambitious team of U.S Rally Racers. Mcqueen and Connor race the Rompers, as well as two VINS. After that, they meet up with the Hooligans, the 4 Muscle cars from the First Cars Video Game. After that race, they meet up with the Dune Dashers, an all-female Team of SUVs and Pickup Trucks. After that, Chick Hicks shows up to Introduce Mcqueen, Sarge, and Connor to El Machismo, a very overambitious HTB-Sponsored Trophy Truck. Machismo threatens to Shake Mcqueen's shocks, bend his rims, and something else, before Sarge tells him that they all understand he's excited. Chick leaves, while El Machismo tells Mcqueen he's going to show him what "Me Time" is all about, much to the heroes' confusion. Mcqueen wins and El Machismo flips out like Candice and blames Chick and MotorCo. for his loss. Even Chick admitted he wasn't that much of a sore loser.
Back in Ornament Valley, again, Mater has some fun with the Taters after Bubba told the latter they would get Radiator Spring's towing rights, and tells them all the nice things RS has to offer, like Flo's, Ramone's, Lizzie's, only to realize that Radiator Springs has a tow truck too, which would be him, after which he then realizes he has what city folk call a "Dilemmie".
In Motoropolis, a Hilly, Bright-lit Metropolis, Mcqueen customizes himself yet again, this time with thick drag tires, a wheelie bar, a custom hood, and even big exhaust pipes on the sides. Mcqueen races against the Tune-ups, a mostly Female Crew of Tuners, the Delinquent Road Hazards, and the Muscle Heads, a gang of a Classic Dodge Charger T, his Modern Son, a Camaro, and a Mustang. After their race, they hear a loud engine roar, and the Muscle Heads run away in fear. This car is intoduced to Mcqueen, Ramone, and Connor as Stinger, whom Ramone realized was the strong silent type. Team Mcqueen wins again, and this time CHICK flips out. Chick is furious at Stinger for losing, and after calling him a "steel brained bucket of bolts", demands to know what he has to say for himself. Stinger says nothing and just drives away in anger. Chick tells Mcqueen, Ramone, and Connor that they can smile now, but that he still has a bunch of surprises, including his plans for Radiator Springs.
At the Rustbucket Stadium, Mater, Bubba, and the Taters have their big race. Mater wins this race AND the towing rights to Radiator Springs! The Taters are happy that their new friend won, but Bubba is not, as this means no towing rights to Radiator Springs, no Rustbucket Stadium, NOTHING, ZILCH, NADA! The Taters are confused when Bubba said "nothing" as they made a new friend, whom won, and his name rhymes with theirs', which made it feel like they won too. Bubba, frustrated, ditches the Taters, and threatens to come back for revenge, "IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!" Mater then says that while Bubba's plotting his revenge, he's gonna learn how to spell I.Q too.
Back at the Rust-Eze Speedway, Mcqueen's Academy does a few more races, including a rematch against Candice, El Machismo, and Stinger, before eventually, it's time for the final event: The showdown between Mcqueen and Chick Hicks. Chick has gotten several modifications for his big race, while Mcqueen has one final set of modifications: A wide body kit, roof scoop, big wing, and big, silver rims with high-grip tires. Chick then reveals that he was just using his students and allies to learn how to beat Mcqueen, and that he's now the best, high performance, custom racer, who's gonna take Mcqueen down. They have their final showdown, and even though it is long and difficult, Mcqueen comes out on top, and wins the Race O Rama series Trophy. Chick is upset, though Mcqueen tells him that he could've been a better racer, but Chick just doesn't listen and swears revenge. The other race crews come to congratulate Lightning, and Chick's allies come to apologize for how they behaved on the track, with Stinger just revving his engine. Lastly, Lightning Mcqueen reveals that he was using the Race O Rama series as a way to find out who was worthy of carrying the #95 for the Piston Cup, and decides that Connor Tormaski was worthy of the 95. Mcqueen gets Tormaski painted in a Rust-Eze 95 inspired paint job, before announcing that while he isn't going to race for the Piston Cup anymore, he will keep on racing, this time for the American Association of Racing Cars (AARC), a racing series for former Piston Cup Racers. Everybody celebrates back in Radiator Springs, and then the credits roll.
Man, that was long. Anyways, next up: The Gameplay!
