The End The End This ain't asphalt son, this is dirt.
15
Oh great, what do you want?
16
You here to gloat?
17
You don't have three wheel brakes so you gotta pitch it hard, break it loose and...
18
And just drive it with the throttle.
19
Give it too much, you'll be out of the dirt and into the tulips.
20
So you're a judge, a doctor, and a racing expert?
21
I'll put it simple.
22
If you're going hard enough left, you'll find yourself turning right.
23
Oh, right.
24
That makes perfect sense.
25
Turn right to go left!
26
Yes!
27
Thank you!
28
Cars tells the story of Lightning, a race car that gets lost in a small town called Radiator Springs.
29
Although Radiator Springs is a fictional place, it's inspired by the multiple real -world locations on the historic US Route 66,
30
the mother road that connects the country from Chicago to Los Angeles.
31
As Lightning understands what makes that town so special and the struggles of the residents to survive the changes over time,
32
he also discovers the power of true friendship.
33
This ain't asphalt son, this is dirt.
34
Lightning is a race car.
35
Because of that he's used to running on asphalt, the black petroleum -like material used to build roads.
36
That's why he's not able to run on the dirt.
37
Dirt is the word to describe soil like this.
38
Dirt roads are not paved, this means that they are made just of the soil itself.
39
If you drive just like lightning you'll notice
40
that the traction is different to asphalt and it takes time to get used to it.
41
Everyone's jostling for position as we hit the asphalt again.
42
Francesco lost a lot of momentum in the dirt.
43
This ain't asphalt son, this is dirt.
44
Ain't is a common negative contraction in English.
45
Check out how Ethan explained it here.
46
This word is used as an alternative to the negative form of the verb to be.
47
Am not, is not, are not.
48
The verb have, have not, and has not, and the verb do, do not, and does not.
49
It's also sometimes used to replace the past forms of those verbs.
50
You ain't gonna win unless you got good folks behind you and you let them do dirt.
51
But you never leak oil.
52
Yeah but I ain't perfect, don't tell nobody.
53
This ain't asphalt son, this is dirt.
54
Son here is a word used to express affection, fondness, kindness towards a friend or acquaintance.
55
It's mostly used with young males.
56
Other examples of words used with this purpose are kid, sweetheart, dude, mate, sugar and so on.
57
Oh great, what do you want?
58
You here to gloat?
59
When someone gloats it means that they are happy or pleased because they were successful or because someone failed.
60
You found them!
61
You know what, I'm not even gonna gloat.
62
I'm just really relieved this whole thing is over.
63
You put these on my desk.
64
I did not.
65
Oh really?
66
So in this example, Tag is the person who finds something that Rachel is looking for.
67
He says he's not going to gloat.
68
He also could have said that he's not going to brag or boast about it.
69
All of these words mean to proudly and excessively talk about something that you've accomplished.
70
That's the great thing about learning English with friends.
71
You learn to understand real -life native vocabulary in different contexts of daily life.
72
You study while having fun.
73
Why not try it out right now with our three -part masterclass?
74
You can click up here or down in the description box below to try it out.
75
I'm sure you'll love it.
76
You don't have three -wheel brakes so you've got to pitch it hard, break it loose and and just drive it with the throttle.
77
Brakes are mechanical devices that slow down car movement.
78
Wheel braking is when the driver intentionally presses the brakes for the car to stop.
79
Race cars like Lightning who runs on asphalt have four -wheel brakes.
80
However, cars that run on dirt usually have three -wheel brakes.
81
Without these mechanics for Lightning to turn on dirt, Doc advises him to turn right to go left.
82
In order to do that, he says he's got to pitch it hard.
83
Here, pitch it hard means to press the accelerator, also called throttle or gas pedal to increase speed.
84
As he's going to brake with four wheels instead of three this will help him recover rear back wheel traction.
85
That's why Doc says for him to break it loose.
86
Loose in this context is a slang term for oversteer.
87
Oversteer is to make the car turn more than it was commanded by the driver.
88
This often happens because the rear tires are in a greater a slip angle than the front tires.
89
Notice how the rhythm of his speech sounds different from lightning speech?
90
The reason why is that American accents vary from region to region.
91
The musicality in Doc's accent and the words he uses show characteristics of Southern accents.
92
To learn about five different American accents check out this lesson that Ethan made next.
93
So you're a judge, a doctor and a racing expert.
94
Expert is a word used to describe people who have extensive knowledge or experience on a topic or skill.
95
So a racing expert is a person who understands cars,
96
motor performance and strategies and oftentimes guide learners on how to have the best performance on the track.
97
In fact the country is almost shut down to watch what many experts are calling the race of the century.
98
I'll put it simple, if you're going hard enough left you'll find yourself turning right.
99
To put something simply is to explain things in a clear easy
100
and more understandable manner in an attempt to eliminate any possible doubts people may have about it.
101
It's often used when the topic or situation being discussed is too complicated.
102
Mr. Simpson, your intelligence profile indicates that you're too stupid to stick to a budget.
103
Yes, go on.
104
So let me put this simply.
105
You need more money.
106
But how do I get it?
107
Oh, right.
108
That makes perfect sense.
109
Turn right to go left.
110
Yes!
111
Thank you!
112
Right is one of those versatile words in English that means different things depending on the context and the intonation.
113
Check out how right was used in these examples and try to identify the idea it is expressing.
114
Oh, you know what?
115
I'm gonna have that too.
116
Uh, right, your usual. In your dreams, Thunder.
117
Yeah, right.
118
Thunder, what's he talking about thunder?
119
You know, because thunder always comes after lightning.
120
Kaboom!
121
I'm not the only one seeing this, right?
122
you The End The End
123
I don't think I...
124
I didn't come all this way to see you quit.
125
Doc?
126
Guys, you're here!
127
I can't believe this!
128
I knew you needed a crew chief, but I didn't know it was this bad.
129
I thought you said you'd never come back.
130
Well, I really didn't have a choice.
131
Mater didn't get to say goodbye.
132
Goodbye!
133
Okay, I'm good.
134
All right, if you can drive as good as you can fix the road, then you can win this race with your eyes shut.
135
Now get back out there.
136
Hot snot, we are back in business.
137
Guido, Luigi, you're going up against professional pit crews, boys.
138
You're gonna have to be fast.
139
They will not know what beat them.
140
Kid, you can beat these guys.
141
Find the groove that works for you and get that lap back.
142
I don't think I...
143
I didn't come all this way to see you quit.
144
When someone quits doing something, it means that they don't do it anymore.
145
It can be used in different contexts like to talk about a job or a habit.
146
For example, Peter quit his job last month or his tests came back he really needs to quit smoking.
147
A common phrasal verb used with the same idea is give up.
148
A crew refers to the group of people involved in performing a job.
149
In this context it refers to the mechanics involved that will help during the pit stop.
150
However the word is also commonly used to describe those who work on a ship, aeroplane or film set.
151
Chief is the person responsible for overseeing this group.
152
to do something is to have the opportunity or chance to do something.
153
Here Doc jokes by saying that he has only come to Lightning's race because Mater didn't have the chance to say goodbye.
154
However he's there to help him because he lost his entire crew.
155
Still very much alive thank you.
156
I can't believe I get to race the Lightning McQueen.
157
In his farewell season.
158
What are you talking about?
159
All right, if you can drive as good as you can fix the road, then you can win this race with your eyes shut.
160
Now get back out there.
161
What's the meaning of doing something with your eyes shut?
162
Do it easily without much effort.
163
Do it mindlessly without paying attention.
164
Do it recklessly without thinking of the consequences.
165
When you say you are able to do something with your eyes shut it means
166
that a certain task or activity is not difficult for you.
167
Hot snot, we are back in business.
168
Hot snot in this context is most likely an interjection of excitement like oh boy or yippee.
169
I'll see you at the finish line buddy.
170
Not if I see you first.
171
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee his pit crew.
172
The pit crew are all the mechanics that work during the pit stop.
173
The pause drivers make to refuel, get new tires and have mechanic adjustments to the car during the race.
174
Daryl it appears McQueen has got himself a pit crew and look who he has for a crew chief.
175
Whoa look man it's the Hudson Hornet.
176
Whoa!
177
You're gonna have to be fast.
178
They will not know what fit them.
179
When they say they will not know what bit them they
180
are using a version of the expression they will not know what hit them.
181
This means that they will do the job so far fast and so efficiently that the other crew will be extremely surprised.
182
Don't worry Homer, I have a foolproof strategy to get you out of here.
183
Surprise witnesses, each more surprising than the last.
184
I tell you the judge won't know what hit him.
185
Pipe down in there, Hutts!
186
Kid, you can beat these guys.
187
The word beat has a particular vowel sound that is often confused with the one with the word bit.
188
Let's look at the differences.
189
The sound E in beat is longer and it happens in the front of the mouth.
190
You can hear this sound in words like sea, leave and beach.
191
The sound I in bit is short and it happens when your tongue is relaxed.
192
You can hear this sound in words like hit, six and live.
193
Let's practice listening to and saying words with both sounds.
194
First you'll choose the correct word to complete the sentence according to what you hear.
195
Then you'll repeat it after me.
196
These shoes don't fit you anymore.
197
Find a groove that works for you and get that lap back.
198
To find a groove is to become very focused on what you are doing.
199
In other words, it's to find the rhythm of doing things that will help you to be more productive.
200
Doc advises Lightning to find his rhythm to get the lap back.
201
Lap in a race refers to a complete trip around the race track.
202
This is it, we're heading into the final lap and McQueen is right behind the leaders.
203
What a comeback!
204

209
Tuh, duh, duh.
210
This ain't asphalt son, this is dirt.
211
Oh great, what do you want?
212
You here to gloat?
213
You don't have three wheel brakes so you gotta pitch it hard, break it loose and just drive it with the throttle.
214
Which word is not a synonym of throttle?
215
Gas pedal, accelerator, brake.
216
If you're too much, you'll be out of the dirt and into the tulips.
217
So you're a judge, a doctor, and a racing expert?
218
I'll put it simple.
219
If you're going hard enough left, you'll find yourself turning right.
220
Oh, right.
221
That makes perfect sense.
222
Turn right to go left.
223
Yes!
224
Thank you!
225
Or should I say no thank you?
226
Because in opposite worlds, maybe that really means thank you.
227
Oh, Mac, I...
228
I...
229
I don't think I...
230
I didn't come all this way to see you quit.
231
Doc?
232
Guys, you're here!
233
I can't believe this!
234
I knew you needed a crew chief, but I didn't know it was this bad.
235
I thought you said you'd never come back.
236
Well, I really didn't have a choice.
237
Mater didn't get to say goodbye.
238
Goodbye!
239
Okay, I'm good.
240
If someone is back in business it means they are doing a certain activity again, they reopened their local store,
241
they are returning to a certain place.
242
Which picture represents a lap in a race?
243
We've got resources, lobbyists, worldwide connections, and, very important, insurance.
244
Insurance is key.
245
All we need now are the super is superheroes.
246
It needs you three.
247
Come on, help me make all supers legal again.
248
This sounds great.
249
Let's get this going.

What's my...
Boost Your Speaking Skills with This Disney Cars Clip
Want to learn English with videos that make practice fun? This Disney Cars lesson is perfect for building fluency in real-life driving scenarios while mastering natural American English. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refine your skills, the goal here is simple: speak more confidently by mimicking native pronunciation and using everyday phrases—no subtitles needed!
Phrase Bank: Drive Your Vocabulary Forward
Here are reusable expressions from the dialogue that you can start using today:
- "learn fast English without getting lost" – ideal for talking about effective language practice
- "test your knowledge with quiz questions" – great for describing study routines
- "head on over to" – a casual way to invite someone to check out a platform (like social media)
- "join me in one of the lives" – perfect for discussing live events or classes
These phrases aren’t just for driving—they fit into daily conversations, making your English sound more natural.
Fix Your Weak Spots: Pronunciation & Rhythm
One of the biggest challenges in English is nailing pronunciation, especially American intonation. This video helps you tackle that by focusing on shadow speak (or "shadowspeak")—a technique where you repeat lines right after the speakers. By mimicking their rhythm and stress, you’ll learn to sound less like a learner and more like a native. Common tricky areas, like linking words ("hit that Subscribe button") or reducing sounds ("wanna" instead of "want to"), are broken down naturally in the dialogue, so you can practice without feeling overwhelmed.
Ready to improve English pronunciation and take your speaking to the next level? Start with this clip, use the phrase bank, and try shadowing the lines. Don’t forget to check out additional daily lessons on social media to keep practicing—consistency is key!
Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
