History
Eugene appears at the Motor Speedway of the South in Cars, competing in the 2005 Dinoco 400, the final race of the season. Eugene is doing well early into the race, until Chick Hicks attempts to further distance himself from Lightning McQueen, and does so by causing a large wreck consisting of all cars except himself, Lightning, The King, Eugene and Mac iCar, but a mistake happens that Eugene was actually a participant of the wreck where he hits Crusty Rotor and nears James Cleanair, Ponchy Wipeout and Ruby "Easy" Oaks when they collide.
Eugene briefly continues racing, but ultimately decides to quit before the final lap is announced.
Between the events of Cars and Cars 3, Eugene retires, and Reb Meeker becomes the new Tank Coat racer.
Official profiles
Car Finder Game
- Eugene got his start prepping racecars at a local race shop. But it didn't take long before he realized he had more nuts and bolts knowledge of racing than most of the other arrogant cars he was working on. A pick up race during lunch one day between Eugene and one of the pros, showed that he had more power than he knew what to do with. With that one simple victory, Eugene garnered the attention of Wells Runabout, the owner of Team Tank Coat, and the rest is history!
