Vince

Vince is a tough as nails and a confident race car from Queens, New York City, that first appears in Cars: The Videogame. Vince is the leader of a gang of Queens race cars, consisting of himself, Sonny, Lenny and Barry, and first arrived in Radiator Springs to challenge Lightning McQueen under secret partnership with Chick Hicks, though later stayed in the town to compete in more races.
Vince' model is designed after a 1968 Ford Mustang that is painted red, with white lines up his hood and roof, along with the number "9" painted on his doors, His rear is based on a 1968 Dodge Charger and his front end during gameplay also looks a bit like a 1971 Buick Skylark. He has chrome rims, and while he does not possess a rear license plate in most versions of the games, he has one in the Wii version of Cars: The Videogame and the Wii and PS3 versions of Cars: Mater-National Championship, simply reading "VINCE".
==History==
===Cars: The Videogame===
In Cars: The Videogame, Vince first appears as one of the speeders that Sheriff must chase down in the "Hot Rodders" level of Sheriff's Hot Pursuit. He and his gang later appear in the cutscene for Ornament Valley Circuit in which they inform Lightning that they have come to Radiator Springs to help him train for the remainder of his Piston Cup season. Vince and Sonny later challenge Fletcher, El Guapo, and McQueen to a race in Tailfin Pass. In the cutscene for Chick's Challenge, it is revealed that the Queens gang has an alliance with Chick Hicks, and Vince then competes in a race against Lightning, Chick, Sonny and Barry. He later appears as an opponent in Tailfin Pass Grand Prix, the second race of the "Radiator Springs Grand Prix" series. In the cutscene for Ornament Valley Grand Prix, the third race of the series, Vince is interviewed by Darrell Cartrip in which he nervously stutters and stumbles, after happily saying hello to his mother, who is supposedly watching the television station that the interview is being aired on.
Vince can also be found driving around Ornament Valley while Lightning is exploring, saying, "What rendered speechless by my majesty?" or "Hey! What are you's lookin' at?" to Lightning whenever the two see each other. Although he appears in Tailfin Pass Circuit and Tailfin Pass Grand Prix in story mode, he will not appear in arcade mode.
===Cars: Mater-National Championship===

In Cars: Mater-National Championship, Vince first appears as one of the four opponents in Fillmore's Nature Preserve and is later found as an opponent again in Ornament Valley Airport, again in Team Relay #3 on a team with Otto and Sonny, and once more in The Upper Mine. He can also be found as the opposing player in the second and eighth levels of Doc and the Law's Race 'n' Chase.
He also appears in the cutscene shown when Lightning first enters Tailfin Pass, in which he and Sonny are racing against Otto and Koji, though they are lagging far behind.
