The King (Cars)

Strip "The King" Weathers
Strip Weathers is a famous, wealthy racecar with considerable experience, with the nickname of "The King" as he has won so many races in his long career. He is Dinoco's mascot, married to a "Mrs The King", and appreciates his pit crew, popular for all-round good sportsmanship.

Appearance
Strip Weathers has been racing for years, having won more races in a season than any other car. He's Dinoco's mascot, and is good friends with his agent. But now he's retiring from the world of racing to spend more time with his loving wife.

In the first race of the movie, Strip comes in a three-way points tie with Chick Hicks and Lightning McQueen, meaning there will be a tie-breaker race in Los Angeles. After the race he congratulates Lightning on his performance, but severely admonishes him for being over-confident and arrogant - advice which Lightning ignores, day-dreaming about being Dinoco's new mascot.

In the last race, he is side-swiped by Chick Hicks and ends up in an appalling crash, but Lightning McQueen, who has learned his lesson in Radiator Springs, pushes him to complete the race.
