⚡️ Biggest “What if?” Ever... 🏁 This fan edit gives Cars 3 the ending a lot of Lightning McQueen fans wanted to see. ⠀ Instead of stepping aside for Cruz Ramirez, the edit imagines Lightning staying in the Florida 500 and going wheel-to-wheel with Jackson Storm. ⠀ In the actual movie, Lightning gives up his place so Cruz can finally race, then coaches her from the pits as she chases Storm down. ⠀ Cruz ultimately beats Storm after using one of Doc Hudson’s old moves, while Lightning shares credit for the victory because he started the race. ⠀ Pixar clearly chose the mentor storyline on purpose, but seeing No. 95 fight Storm himself still scratches a very specific nostalgic itch. ⠀ For fans who grew up watching Lightning dominate, this is basically the alternate ending they had in their heads. ⠀ Would you have preferred Lightning to finish the race himself, or was Cruz winning the better ending? ⠀ What are your thoughts? 🤔💭 ⠀ FOLLOW ➡️ for more nostalgic automotive movie moments! 🤝🏎️ ⠀ ( Media: Pixar Cars / E
