"Woo-hoo!" Mater hollered, leaning out the window of the Dinoco helicopter as it flew over the Wheel Well. "Hey, hey! Hey, look at me! I’m flyin’!"

It was two days later, and Radiator Springs was hopping. A glistening red Ferrari and two black Maseratis had just rolled into Luigi’s tire shop.

"So," the Ferrari told Luigi, "Lightning McQueen told me this was the best place in the world to get tires. How about setting me and my friends up with three or four sets each?"

Luigi gasped. It was Michael Schumacher! "Guido … ," he cried. "There is a real Michael Schumacher Ferrari in-a my store! A real Ferrari! Punch me, Guido! Punch me in the face. This is the most glorious day of my life!"

Luigi fainted in their presence.

The Ferrari turned to Guido. "I hope your little friend’s okay," he said in Italian. "I hear wonderful things about your store."

Guido gaped at the Ferrari. Then he fainted, too. Sally was at the Wheel Well, looking down on the town, when Lightning appeared beside her. He was decked out in his full Radiator Springs paint and stickers.

"Ka-chow!" he said.

They both laughed.

"Just passin’ through?" Sally asked.

"Actually … ," Lightning said, keeping his voice casual, "I thought I’d stop and stay a while." He leaned toward Sally. "I hear this place is back on the map," he said in a confidential whisper.

Sally gave him a dubious look. "It is?"

"Yeah, there’s a rumor floating around that some hotshot Piston Cup race car is setting up his big racing headquarters here," Lightning replied.

Sally’s eyes widened. "Really?" she asked, then caught herself. "Oh, well … ," she said, playing it cool. "There goes the town."

"You know," Lightning whispered, "I really missed you, Sally." The race car leaned closer to her.

"Lightning and Sally, parked beneath a tree!" Mater shouted as the helicopter flew past.

"K-I-S-S … uh … I-N-T!"

"Great timing, Mater!" Lightning shouted. He looked at Sally. "He’s my best friend… ," he explained with a shrug. "What are you gonna do?"

"So, Stickers," Sally said, giving him a playful grin. "Last one to Flo’s buys?"

"I don’t know, why don’t we just take a drive?" Lightning suggested.

Sally’s eyes twinkled. "Naah." Then she suddenly took off down the mountain.

"Yeah!" Lightning shouted as he took off after her. "Ka-chow!"

“哈哈！”岱诺可直升机上，板牙把身子探出窗外激动地欢呼着。直升机飞过轮井上空的时候，板牙向大家招呼：“喂！喂！我在这里，我飞起来啦！”

两天后，水箱温泉镇热闹了起来。一辆崭新的红色法拉利和两辆黑色的玛莎拉蒂光顾了卡布的轮胎店。

法拉利告诉卡布：“闪电麦坤告诉我你这里有世界上最好的轮胎，可不可以给我和我的朋友们每人提供三四套新轮胎？”

卡布惊呆了。跟他讲话的是迈克尔·舒马赫！他激动地朝奇诺大喊：“迈克尔·舒马赫本人在我的店里！货真价实的法拉利！奇诺，我不是在做梦吧。给我一拳，冲我脸打！这是我生命中最美好的一天！”

大人物的出现让卡布激动得晕倒在地。

迈克尔·舒马赫转向奇诺。“我希望你的小伙伴没出大碍，”他用意大利语说，“我听过很多关于你们店的精彩故事。”

奇诺目瞪口呆地看着眼前的法拉利，突然，他也晕倒在地。正当莎莉在轮井俯视整个小镇时，麦坤出现在她的身边。水箱温泉镇的烤漆和贴纸装饰着麦坤的车身。

“咔—嚓！”麦坤说。

俩人都笑了。

“只是路过这里吗？”莎莉问。

“其实……”麦坤让自己的声音保持自然，他顿了一下说，“我想我会停下来住一段时间。”麦坤将身子靠近莎莉神秘地耳语：“有人告诉我水箱温泉镇已经重回地图了。”

莎莉怀疑地看着他说：“是吗？”

“真的，有消息说某辆非常厉害的活塞杯赛车要把赛车总部建在这里。”麦坤回答说。

“是真的吗？”莎莉惊奇地瞪大眼睛，刚问了一句又突然闭上嘴巴。她摆出很酷的姿势说：“哦，好吧，小镇这下走运了。”

“莎莉，你知道吗？”麦坤靠近莎莉的耳边说，“我真的很想你。”

“麦坤和莎莉，躲在树底！”直升机飞过他们的时候，板牙大喊起来。

“亲啊……亲啊……”

“板牙，来得真是时候！”麦坤大声说。他看着莎莉，耸了耸肩解释道：“他是我最好的朋友，你能拿他怎么办？”

莎莉朝麦坤顽皮地笑了笑：“闪电侠，不去芙蓉那里看看？”

“不知道，要不我们兜一圈去？”麦坤提议。

莎莉眨了眨眼睛。“不！”她猛踩油门朝山下开去。

“欧耶！”麦坤欢呼一声朝莎莉追去。“咔—嚓！”
