Speedy Comet

Speedy Comet is a professional race car, who competed in the Piston Cup Racing Series, for the Blinkr team. However, once next-generation racers began to garner attention for their unmatched speed and ability, Blinkr fired Speedy and replaced him with Ryan "Inside" Laney, who was one of the six next-gen rookies after Jackson Storm won the Dinoco 400.

History
In Cars 3, Speedy competes in the 2016 season, when Jackson Storm makes his debut. Storm's success sparks interest in next-generation models, who are faster and more capable than traditional stock racers. Realizing their superiority in terms of ability, Piston Cup teams start firing their veterans in favor of next-generation rookies, and Speedy becomes one of many who are replaced.
