Greetings from the Blackstar Stables.
Before I post a new story I'm fixing the ones that are already posted.
Just to make sure that I'm making myself clear, I have a few notes:
The cars in my story are alive. They are born not built.
When cars die they have the option of being recycled. Their metal then can be used to make statues. For example… The statue of Stanley in Radiator Springs is actually made from his metal. Most cars are not squeamish about that, they tend to see it as something noble. If they are big enough they can have a bridge, a structure or something that for cars to drive on or over. However, most cars choose to be buried.
Humans do not exist in this universe. They are mythical beasts, like dragons and unicorns.
I know this is going to be hard to explain, but here it goes: All cars have mechanical arm in the center of their front wheels. When they are not in use, they retract back into the wheels. The arms are three to four feet long, depending on the breed of vehicle. At the end of the arms are "hands." The hands look like robot hands and can pick up and hold different items. However, cars prefer to use their tires most of the time. I don't know why, they just do.
Biological Functions
Like any living creature, cars/planes have the ability to increase muscle strength from working out on a regular schedule. You gain weight when you work out because muscle is heavier than fat.
A car's/plane's metal can heal on its own like skin. When it is punctured or cut, the car will bleed. Vehicles in the cars world don't bleed blood like mammals. They bleed oil, since oil is a cars lifeblood. A cars metal is soft enough that most minor contacts don't leave a visible mark. Minor dents are easily removed by using a suction device. Also the metal is soft enough, that sometimes cars will need stitches to close a wound. The material that is used to stitch the wound is very fine, but strong. Stitches are usually removed after the wound has healed. If the damage to the car's 'skin' is severe, they can have what is called a metal transplant/replacement, but it's incredibly painful and is only used as a last option.
Cars/planes have internal organs like humans. So they can eat food, which their biological systems process into fuel. They can have fuel placed in their gas tanks and it gets to their engines much quicker. But fuels can't provide the social interaction of sitting down and eating a meal with someone.
A car/plane that only lives on gas or other types of fuel are called "vegans".
A car/plane's biological systems breaks the food down into usable energy. While the excess water is expelled as urine, they don't need to do a "number two" when in the bathroom.
Cars/planes have a respiratory system similar to humans. Therefore, they are able to get sick and have colds. And like humans, there are medicines to treat it.
Cars unlike humans do not have problems with fertility; they on the whole are fertile. Most of their focus is on birth control. There are the normal items like, condoms and birth control pills. But for both sexes, sterilization is an option.
For the males: Vasectomies are the most used option because it's not a major operation. The procedure is performed in a doctor's office in about an hour. Vasectomies can easily be reversed without any complications.
For the females: Most women choose to have their tubes tied. Unlike the vasectomies, it is a full surgery, that includes a seven to fourteen day stay in the hospital. It can be reversed but it's difficult, expensive, and not always successful.
Male: A male testicle size depends on his body size and breed. Average car testicles are about the size of a large plum. The testicles lay just behind the penis, one on each side of it. The scrotum holds the testicles close to the body, just loose enough to be comfortable, but not floppy. Unlike humans most male cars don't like having his testicles touched, even in sexual situations. Penises are usually call manhood in the cars universe. It varies in size, length, and shape depending on breed and bloodlines. Penises mature along with the male. It doesn't get any longer, it gets fuller and more robust. And in some situations, the texture can even change.
Female cars: Breasts are located just behind their front axles. The size and shape depends on her body size, breed and the amount of fat she has in her body. Their primary use is to feed newborns and infants. Babies usually nurse a year to a year and a half. A female's primary sex organs are her labia, clitoris and vagina. They are located between her rear tires. Like a human, girls go through puberty. During that time, they start having menstrual cycles. It's a little different for female aircraft, but I'll discuss that when we get to it.
Clothing
Males: Cars only wear "clothing" over their genitals. A car's 'underwear' is a somewhat thick piece of material. It's normally cotton but can be any kind of cloth. It lines the codpiece and can be changed out when needed. It keeps the hard outer part of a codpiece away from the male's sensitive genitals. A codpiece is a lightweight piece of metal that all males wear over their genitals. It is held on with clips and/or cloth covered magnets. Boys starts to use one as soon as he is out of diapers. There are many sizes and shapes to suit individual tastes. Most racecars use a "racing codpiece". A racing codpiece is heavier and provides better protection in case of a wreck or pileup while being on the track.
Females: Cars wear "clothing" over their genitals and breasts. A bra, is worn over the breasts. It has two parts, a soft inner part and a semi hard outer part. Both the inner and outer parts can be highly decorative. The inner part is what most females consider underwear. It is held on with clips and/or cloth covered magnets. What humans call panties, is called "a cap" in the cars world. It has two parts. A inner soft part, normally cotton but can be any kind of cloth. It lines the hard outer part and can be changed out when needed. It keeps the hard outer part of the cap away from the female's sensitive genitals. Again both can be highly decorative. It too is held on with clips and/or cloth covered magnets.
Paint jobs and Vinyl Wraps
Paint Jobs: Most cars/planes are content to live in their natural paint or color. If a car/plane wants a new paint job, they have to go to a body art shop/salon. The price is determined on what they want. A basic paint job is only a few hundred dollars, while a custom 'one of a kind' paint job can run into the thousands.
Vinyl Wraps: Are the hottest thing in fashion. They allow a car to completely change their looks without the hassle or expense of getting a new paint job. Most styles of raps are very affordable. They are more popular with women than they are with men. While a car could put the wrap on themselves, it's easier to have someone else do it for them. There are shops and salons that specialize in putting the wraps on. The wraps are easy to remove. They just peel off with little effort. Since the wraps are temporary, they usually don't last more than a month or two.
Other Stuff
I've changed Sally's fathers name to Lance. I never liked Monty to start with.
I think that's everything… for now. Sidelined is now called SIDELINED: A New Beginning
It's taken me months to rewrite it, I hope you'll enjoy it. I'm going to leave the original story up so you can see how it has changed.
CHAPTERS WILL COME OUT NEXT WEEK!
