You Know, For Kids! - Demolition Derby by dksponge13 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

A few nights ago, I watched Cars 3 with my parents. And while I enjoyed it, there was this one particular sequence I felt would be appropriate for this meme;

So Lightning McQueen is trying to get back on his feet (read; tires) after a near-fatal racing accident triggered by a new next-gen competitor forces him into a four-month retirement. At one point in the movie, he figures racing on a dirt track would be one good way to get him back up to speed (no pun intended). So he and racing trainer Cruz Ramirez go incognito to a nearby racing track in order to compete...but his luck changes for the worst when it's actually revealed to be a violent, gladiatorial demolition derby instead With the (apparent) reigning champion being an enormous school bus named Miss Fritter.

And if you're familiar with this sort of competition, you know fairly well that for a car, it's a life-or-death situation. Especially when they're SENTIENT BEINGS. 😨
