Description[]
From "Car Finder"[1]:
"Floyd Mulvihill, originally trained as an automotive engineer, decided to put down his tools and pursue his life-long passion to race. He competed in the Junior Piston Cup Pro Series with the likes of Sage VanDerSpin and graduated to the Piston Cup in 2005. He's affectionately known as "Smoky Floyd" as he enjoys laying long patches of burning rubber in front of his adoring fans during a race in 2005."
Trivia[]
- In a Duracell commercial promoting Cars 3, Lightning McQueen passes Floyd using the tilt technique similar to how he did in the first film.
- From Cars to Cars 3, Floyd's design differs a bit. In Cars and The World of Cars Online, Floyd is a boxy Stodgey, but in Cars 3, his design is closer to that of an Axxelo Fission or a Capitol Motors Mark II.
