Do you guys think they're other resistents of Radiator Springs from the past besides the ones we know & Big Al? If so, debate about it right here.

Stanley. And I'm sure there were, they left after the town was bypassed. Look at all the stores and whatnot that nobody owns.

Yeah, there definatley used to be more people in RS. Like Axel said, there are so many shops that other people used to own. Probably a lot of them re-opened once Mcqueen set up his racing quarters there.

in the art book theres speak of a Mr Windshields character who, not suprisingly, own a windsheild shop. I suppose he was kicked out the project because then Pixar would have to explain the whole replacing windsheilds thing (i have an idea on this  ). you can still see his shop though on the game and in the movie ( I think or at least the same design) There was a Mayor planned aswell and a deceitfull back up driver of mcqueen's.

I was working on a fan fic of the old RS days for a creative writing piece at school, still haven't got it back yet! I just used Ford Fairlanes and other 60's cars.

I generally dislike mayours. I'm glad it wasn't used. XD

I think they would be like contact lenses / goggles that protect the eye, which is beneath. What do you think?

Mater mentioned a truck he liked named Doreen but it's never mentioned whether she lived in town or just drove through. I'm curious if there were enough residents to justify a RS school district or whether they went elsewhere in Carburetor County. And I think there must have been a few visitors during the time the town was in its decline, at least an oil tanker every now and then to refill Flo's fuel pumps.

I wonder what model Big Al was. He was suggested to have enough horsepower to pull Bessie, and his name suggest things about his size.

Some of the closed businesses on Main Street are:
Wimpy's Wipers Muddy's (not sure what business this was) Lube-o-rama Eat (a restaurant, original name huh?) The Oil Pan
I'm curious who the owners of these businesses would've been!

There was also a store that said some'n 'bout "Miss Piston" you think she had not only a relation to a cars pistons, but maybe the piston cup since Doc did end up in Radiator Springs....and not just that, how d'y'think he ended up there....or anyone for that matter.
Or perhaps it don't go that deep, Miss Piston may very well be jus' 'nother resturant or somethin'....just given some ideas. D=
I know Flo wa'in an original resident because she came through with a group of showcars when she met Ramone (at least tha's wha' they say'n the deleted scenes.) but really, how'd some of them end up there anyway?
Curious things ta think 'bou.

I don't know what kind of car was whimpy from that time though, maybe a VW Beetle?
