Chick Hicks

"Hey, McQueen, that must be really embarrassing. But I wouldn't worry about it... because I didn't do it! HA-HA-HA!"

- Chick Hicks

Chick Hicks is the main antagonist in the Pixar movie Cars. Hicks is in a three-way tie with The King and Lightning McQueen, two other racecars, and is attempting to win the Piston Cup and become the new face of Dinoco. His nickname is The Runner-Up as he seems to always lose to The King. He also has the reputation of not racing fairly, and he hates both Lightning McQueen and the King.

In the championship Piston Cup Race, he intentionally sideswipes The King (as he doesn't want to come behind him again), causing him to spin out of control and crash. When Lightning sees what has happened to The King, he stops before crossing the finish line and goes back to help The King across the line, allowing Chick to win first place and the Piston Cup. Though Chick Hicks is somehow delighted that he finally got his Piston Cup, he is outraged to see that he is denied to get the Dinoco endorsement and that the audience have turned on him because of his reckless cheating, forcing him to have to make a quick getaway with his trophy, much to his anger.

Chick's primary sponsor is the Hostile Takeover Bank (htB). His car number is 86.
