Pixar Cars , a re-enactment of how Lightning discovers who Doc Hudson really is, the Incredible Huds
- 9 years ago
Please subscribe to our videos, this re-enactment is when Lightning McQueen actually discovers that his enemy "Doc Hudson" is actually a racing legend, none other than the Incredible 1951 Hudson Hornet...champion for all time.
Remember, Doc was once known as the Fabulous Hudson Hornet (#51), one of the most famous race cars to have ever lived; he won three Piston Cups, and he still held the record for most wins in a single season (27, also the number of NASCAR Grand National races won by Hudson Hornets in 1952.[3]) All that changed for the famous Hornet when a terrible crash on the track during the final lap of the 1954 Piston Cup championship race saw him put out for the season in a career-ending injury which closely parallels the fate of Herb Thomas, NASCAR's 1951 and 1953 champion.
Upon his return, he was received with a complete absence of fanfare and told that he was a has-been who had been passed up for the next rookie in line. He kept a newspaper article on the career-ending crash as a reminder never to return to the life that nearly killed him.
Upon meeting the rookie hotshot Lightning McQueen, Doc sees far too much of the past he'd left behind. His one token attempt to explain a controlled skid on an abrupt turn in dirt-track racing to Lightning is met with misunderstanding and scepticism, leaving Doc disillusioned and bitter about the young hot rod who seems to care only about himself.
