## History

### Cars

Chick was seen taking a pit stop at the Dinoco 400 along the other racers. Later, he bumps into Lee Renkins, showing that he is the main antagonist, but was unexpectedly overtaken by The King, Strip Weathers. Darrell Cartrip and Bob Cultass showed that Chick tries to be in the first place in his entire career, and became more impatient when McQueen came in. Chick was trying to overtake The King and later had to stop McQueen. When Chick slams off McQueen off the track to get back to The King as well as also seeing McQueen is trying to win, he slammed Winford Bradford Rutherlord which caused a massive crash. Unexpectedly, McQueen went through after jumping on two racers.

When Chick was in the pits, he was in pride till his crew chief told him McQueen went through and is not pitting which caused Chick himself telling pit crew to go faster, ending up with him being in the back. He rushed from the back to front to win. When McQueen loses his tires, Chick was told by his crew chief to go fast in order to win, but he failed. Chick then taunts McQueen after his pit crew quit. When it turns out to be a three-way tie and the three racers will have race at California. Chick hosts his plan by telling McQueen whoever gets to California first gets Dinoco all for themselves which also caused Lightning wanting to get to California first.

During the time McQueen has to fix the road after going to court at Radiator Springs, Chick is revealed to arrive early at Cailfornia and spend practice time at the track. Worried that Chick is going win and sign his deal with Dinoco, McQueen finishes the road very fast (even though he has to start all over again). Later in the film, it's also revealed that Chick stole McQueen's catchphrase and most of McQueen's fans (even including Mia and Tia).

At the race at California, Chick was "Kachigga"-ing Mcqueen as well as telling him what happen when Lightning got lost (although McQueen didn't listen to him due to thinking about his new friends at Radiator Springs). Just then, the race started and when that happen, Chicks slams his door on McQueen and laughs when McQueen spins out in the infield. During the time Doc and others arrive to help Lightning, McQueen passes Chick and The King. When McQueen was coming, Chick slams McQueen, but his backward trick made Chick's plan fail. In anger, he bursts McQueen's tire, but Guido's record made Chick enraged. Because of this, Chick tries to hit McQueen but misses him, so he slams McQueen and The King off the track, but McQueen uses one of Doc's tracks. As Lightning was about to win, Chick, refusing to finish the race behind The King again, rams his enemy, sending The King into a violent crash. McQueen sees The King's condition on a TV monitor, and (recalling Doc's famous crash in 1954) stops before crossing the line, allowing to Chick to win the race. However, as Chick gloatfully celebrates his victory, he realizes that his fans aren't cheering him due to his actions, and instead giving praise to McQueen for his respectful act on helping The King.

After McQueen helps The King to finish his last race, Chick comes into the podium and asks for his Piston Cup, in which the trophy is thrown as he says, "now that's what I'm talkin about!" He then notices that his fans are not celebrating his victory due to his actions and because of that, they boo at him as well as using confetti and throwing tires, debris and other stuff at him. Chick defends himself by hiding at the Piston Cup statue asking where the happiness is and it's the start of the Chick era. It's unknown what happened to Chick after this, but it is confirmed that he was rejected by Tex to be with team Dinoco since Tex ask Lightning if he can join Dinoco before decided to be still with Rust-eze.
