Mattel Disney Pixar CARS: Piston Cup Racers by Number, Name & Sponsor Checklist (CARS to CARS 3)
I updated the Piston Cup racers checklist to reflect all the changes to numbers, sponsors and drivers with some updated options.
A gray bar indicates that sponsor had no racer in CARS 1 but they could retro one, it’s possible, unlikely but possible.
A black bar means that sponsor changed numbers but they already had a racer in CARS 1 or CARS 3 (depending on the case) so there’s zero chance there will be a addition to that sponsor (like Dinoco THE KING 43 is now Dinoco 31 so there will not be a Dinoco 43 CARS 3 or a 43 Next Gen racer).
“See” means the sponsor changed numbers.
It seems unlikely we’ll get a new Dale Jr. but I left him blank for CARS 3.
Every other blank is a CARS 3 racer or Next Gen racer we might/will get. Other than Carbon Cyber Next Gen who’s name is known but no diecast, the others are still open.

I was wondering, wouldn’t Cruz also be the #95 Next Gen racer as she did win the race in Florida using McQueen’s number 95?
That’s how I classify it in the database I created. Cruz is the “Next Gen” 95 racer, then the Dinoco racer.
(MET: I left it open since she was now racing for Dinoco and McQ is still seemingly the Rust-Eze guy and not officially retired and while CARS seem capable of slight body modifications, he could get a modified Next Gen body, yes, unlikely but until the door is closed …).
Thanks for putting this together for all of us, Met. A great resource!
