Cars 3 (2017) - Tumblr Posts

Hey @aurora-ze-aquarius it was me who made this but I didn't mean to make it anonymous 🙃 but I wrote this at school and the wifi was messing up and thank you for the feedback 😊 also I was thinking more of a humanize AU but still thanks you, lol 😆 but that culture shock i feel like lightning didn't have car and had to walk everywhere and Jackson is just tired like dude we need a car to get there and lightnings like it's only 5 miles away it's not that far

Hey I was thinking of making a cars au and I wanna see what you think, I'm calling it the time travel AU and what happens is Cruz and Jackson some how go back in time to the 80s and see a young teen lightning McQueen ( cause i think 🤔 he from the 80s era ) and see how different of a person he was when he was younger ( i also feel like when lightning was younger he was one of those popular kids that everyone's thought was mean but was actually really nice 👌.

And Cruz and Jackson look young enough to be in high school .

And you know how his name is Montgomery but for some reason I feel like both cruz and Jackson don't know that and when they looking for him and they like hey were looking for a lightning McQueen and people are like we don't have a lightning McQueen but we know a Montgomery McQueen

So what do you think 🤔 please give me any feedback 👌

I think this is a really cool idea ^^

I'd love to see how Cruz and Jackson react to younger McQueen, maybe even see his old home life 👀

Maybe you could add a joke where Jackson complains how they're looking for Lightning not his dad, but then they meet Monty and it actually is Lightning lmaoo

If Jackson and Cruz were to somehow enroll in Monty's highschool, I believe their ages would be around 16/17. I've done a bit of digging and found that some of the youngest irl racecar drivers are/were around 17/18 years old.

(Examples include Max Verstappen from F1 and Kalle Rovanperä from the WRC, both of which started their careers at 17 years old.)

For Cruz, since she had a job before racing, you could say she worked as a volunteer trainer for Rusteze.

Also!! Don't forget that since they're going back in time, there should be culture shock from both Jackson/Cruz, and some of the cars around them.

It's the 80s, car models like Jackson and Cruz have yet to exist, so every once in a while, they may get odd looks from people. At the same time, Jackson and Cruz talk and act quite different from the cars of that time period, so they may have to try to blend in. Maybe even change their look up temporarily.

(That is if this is a long story of course! If they're stuck in the past for not as long (like in that one episode of Tall Mater Tales) then it's perfectly ok to keep their appearance the same. It's just a suggestion ofc)

This au looks very promising, and I wish you good luck on it my friendo

this van has always been hilarious to me. he has had NO REASON TO EXIST in the span of 3 entire movies and like he is a hippy in favor of oil yes i know they are cars but oil harvesting is one of the most environmentally damaging industries in the world. There is something unintentionally hilarious about that
