In Cars, Billy is seen racing at the Motor Speedway of the South. During the huge accident caused by Chick Hicks, Billy finds himself face-to-face with Claude Scruggs. After exchanging nervous laughter, they are both hit by other cars.
He retires some time between the events of Cars and Cars 3, and is replaced by Bobby Swift as the Octane Gain racer, who also gets replaced by Daniel Swervez.
Official bio
"It's Billy Oilchanger's dream to become a racing color commentator after he retires. He's watched all the greats, like Darrell Cartrip and Bob Cutlass over the years, and even practices announcing by calling the races out loud to himself while he's in them. It's great experience, though the other drivers find it distracting and a little creepy."[1]
