Rocker Arms International, known as Rocker Arms International Speedway in the diecast line, is a speedway used for hosting Piston Cup races.

History

In Cars 3, Rocker Arms International hosts the Iowa Hybrid 450, the second race in the 2016 Piston Cup season, whereby Cal Weathers and Lightning McQueen are racing to the finish line followed by the other racers. Cal wins this race, with Lightning finishing in second.

In the comic, Whose Side Are You On?, a race is held here, with Cruz Ramirez finishing in first place, Chase Racelott in second, and Bubba Wheelhouse in third. The scoring pylon in the comic is a flipped version of the Iowa Hybrid 450 results.

Trivia

• Rocker Arms International is based off of Darlington Raceway.
  • It is also located in Des Moines, Iowa, despite Iowa having a race track there called Iowa Speedway. But, that doesn’t fit right for this track because Rocker Arms is a egg-shaped oval track and Iowa Speedway is a D-shaped oval track.
• Rocker Arms International has a same track design as Heartland Motor Speedway.
• Even though the scoring pylon doesn't how the Iowa Hybrid 450's number of laps, let's just say that the race has 330 laps because this race track has a length of 1.366 miles, just like Darlington.
