While a race car is capable of around 6 megajoules rounded to the nearest whole number, here's the thing. That's based on the KE of a car when its moving, which is only applied when it rams into something. Cars ramming into things never went well! Now, one could argue that a car in the Cars verse is superior to a real car, but given The King nearly died from being sent flying by a sideswipe from Chick Hicks and Doc went through the same near-death experience back in the early 1950s when the best a car could do was 124 miles per hour (https://www.hotcars.com/fastest-cars-in-the-world-1950s/#:~:text=Jaguar XK120 ), I highly doubt they're THAT superior. This is from a sideswipe! Imagine how deadly a head-on collision would be!
As for elephants, they had their fair share of rodeos with vehicles. Just with their trunk, an elephant could swing a motorcycle around. Elephants were regularly seen taking out cars and even trucks. Even a 4-ton rhinoceros or hippopotamus isn't a problem for them. And you know what elephants have one over with cars? Trees!
If you pit a car against a tree, the tree is always gonna win! I would know, my dad lost the front bumper of his Ford E350 trying to pull out a measly tree stump with it! That isn't a problem with elephants. Elephants have been observed pushing down trees trying to get food from them. An elephant even demolished homes while boozed out, although a home in India or whatever country Asian elephants lived in is basically comparable to a mobile home here in the US, which REALLY isn't saying much.
So what's a random Formula 1-level racer gonna do against a creature that usually reigned supreme over motor vehicles? Let's find out.
This battle will be fully SBA. Not that it matters since car+elephant typically means a dead car.
Here are their profiles:
Lightning McQueen's Profile
Elephant's Profile
Who takes this? Pretty sure an elephant can easily take out Lightning as soon as either side lands a hit, but we'll see.
Lightning McQueen: 0
Elephant: 0 (1 pending from HonestlyBored24)
Thunder McQueen: 0 (Side note, when was the last time someone used that joke?)
