Jeff Gordon gets Cars 2 character

John Lasseter isn't the only one with a fun cameo in Cars 2. Autoblog has gotten a first look at Jeff Gorvette, a new addition to the cast based on NASCAR racing star Jeff Gordon.

Gordon is lending his voice Gorvette, who is described as "an up-and-coming Chevrolet Corvette C6.R that's "turning hoods wherever he competes."

Autoblog also points out that Cars character Darrell Cartrip, inspired and voiced by Darrell Waltrip, will be returning for the sequel.
