Montgomery "Lightning" McQueen is the main protagonist of the Cars series.

==History==
In a world inhabited by living vehicles, Lightning McQueen is a professional race car. With his incredible speed, skill, and charm, Lightning is beloved by all vehicles, all over the world. All this fame would get to his head, though, leading him to become self-centered and arrogant. After placing in a three-way tie at his very first Piston Cup, Lightning was determined to win the tiebreaker race no matter what. But after an accident left him stranded in the remote desert town of Radiator Springs, Lightning found himself surrounded by people who didn't care about how famous he was.
After being sentenced to community service and humbled by town judge Doc Hudson, Lightning befriended the town's residents, especially the tow truck Mater. He made it back to the race in time, where he found his kindness repaid by his new friends, who came to his aid as his pit crew. Although he could've won, he used the lessons he learned to prioritize what was more important than winning: helping out those who needed it. Though he ended up losing, Lightning still went on to cement his legacy as a legend in his own right, helping restore Radiator Springs to its former glory, winning five Piston Cups, and even training the next generation of racers.
