Biography in the SC Shorts
LigLightning McQueen first appeared in the episode, "Thomas TV". He was seen on one of the channels that Thomas was constantly changing from. In the show, he was seen driving along the road when Thomas accidentally crashed into him. After he crashed into him, McQueen noticed that he had landed on his wheels and was in complete disbelief afterwards.

McQueen once auditioned for the role of Ace for the ''Big World! Big Adventures!'' movie. He ended up not getting the role due to him not being yellow.

One day, a diecast Cars 3 Lightning McQueen encountered a pack of other Lightning McQueens from different brands. They soon started to get into an argument over who looks the most accurate to the real Lightning McQueen. Later, when they tried to make peace with each other, a paper model of McQueen caused them all to get into a fight due to the other McQueens laughing at his son earlier. The Cars 2 Lightning McQueen is then seen telling this story to Shu Todoroki who then leaves calling himself "so Asian".

On New Year's Day, Sir Topham Hatt was seen driving McQueen off of a cliff.

Trivia

 * In the earlier episodes of the SC Shorts, Lightning's diecast model had a tendency to not stay consistent as it would change in most of the episodes. Up until 2019, McQueen's Cars 3 diecast model would be used as the main model for him in most of the SC Shorts. As of 2019 however, his Cars 2 WGP diecast model would be the main model that is used for him in the SC Shorts.
 * He was potrayed as being a dope in "The Gay Race" as the only word that he could ever say was "ker-choo". Harold said that this was because he hit his head when he was child. However, this portrayal of him would only be used for that episode only.
