This is an article focusing on the relationships of The King (Strip Weathers) in Cars.
==Family==
===Lynda Weathers===
Lynda is The King's wife and queen. She seems to have concern for him whenever he got out on the racetrack, also being proud of him and told him that he'll always be a winner to her no matter what happens. During the tie-breaker race, she wishes her husband good luck, and went out to support him. However, she became shocked when her husband is wrecked by Chick Hicks, which resulted him flying off infield and toppling to the ground. Her disappointment was eventually solved when she witnesses Lightning McQueen give up the Piston Cup so he can help her husband finish his last race, much to her delight. Soon afterwards, Lynda kisses McQueen on the cheek.
===Cal Weathers===
Cal is The King's nephew.
==Friends and Allies==
===Tex Dinoco===
. . .
===Lightning McQueen===
McQueen is one of The King's allies. While racing for the Piston Cup in his first year, McQueen was racing against the King, who was retiring at the end of the season and aiming to get sponsored by the King's Dinoco team, and also wanting to win his final Piston Cup. After Chick bumped McQueen off the track at one point during the race at the Motor Speedway of the South, the King was far ahead, but McQueen was able to get ahead of the King and all the other racers after Chick caused a huge crash which McQueen managed to get through, and many of the racers came in for a pit stop, except McQueen, who stayed out on the track and built a huge lead over the King. However, after getting his rear tires blown, he tied with the King and Chick. After the race, the King told McQueen that he had great talent, but was still not very clever. It soon turned out that race officials had decided to have them both and Chick take part in a tiebreaker race at the Los Angeles International Speedway.On the final lap of the race, McQueen got past the King and Chick by using a trick from Doc after Chick rammed him off the track, but he then noticed that the King had crashed after Chick rammed him off due to becoming angered of being stuck behind. Feeling concerned that the King would have a similar fate to Doc, McQueen gave up his goal of winning, even if it means allowing a cheating racer to win, and pushed the King across the finish line so to have him finish his final race. As The King was being helped out by him, he told McQueen that he just forfeited the Piston Cup to save him, only for McQueen to tell him that he learned from Doc Hudson that the trophies are just a bunch of empty cups, having learned that friendship is important.McQueen and the King then become friends upon that moment of having the King end his racing career with a race finish.
==Enemies==
===Chick Hicks===
Chick is The King's greatest enemy. Apparently content to come in second place, The King focused on keeping ahead of Chick Hicks. He never lets Chick get in front of him, no matter what.Chick and The King have always been rivals ever since, having placed 2nd throughout his entire racing career. But their rivalry have seemingly came to a spillover when Lightning McQueen came in, which made Chick Hicks more angry as he also saw him as a target. During the tiebreaker, The King tried to seemingly keep his pace, avoiding Chick whenever he taunted or knocked him. But when Lightning McQueen used one of Doc Hudson's tricks, which impressed The King as he believed that he wants McQueen to win for his talent, he decided to stick with second place as he did not want Chick to hurt Lightning. Although this didn't ease off tension, as Chick Hicks, frustrated about coming in behind, displayed a lack of sportsmanship by knocking him out and sending him flying off to the grass, battered in steam much to the fans horror. This resulted McQueen giving up the Piston Cup so he can help The King finish his last race, having recalled Doc Hudson's crash. As a result, Lightning McQueen and The King were praised as heroes and as the real winners by the fans despite coming in 2nd and 3rd place, while Chick Hicks, having officially won his first Piston Cup, was booed and condemned by the media and fans, who have been sick of his dirty tricks, not caring that he won.
