- While Bobby Swift and Danny Swervez used number 19 in Cars 3, the Octane Gain racer in Cars, Billy Oilchanger, used the number 58.
- Bobby Swift's competition number, 19, might be a reference to the 1995 Pixar film Toy Story as, together with Lightning McQueen's number, 95, to whom he stayed close during the races, it formed number 1995, the year of movie's release.
- His paint job bears a striking resemblance to Lee Revkins from Cars.
