In ''[[Cars]]'', Darrell and [[Bob Cutlass]] commentate the 2005 [[Dinoco 400]]. At the start of the race, Darrell and Bob introduce [[Strip Weathers]], [[Chick Hicks]], and [[Lightning McQueen]] to the audience, explaining that the three cars are tied with a score 5,013 points, and the winner of the race will take home the Piston Cup. They are shocked at the 33-car wreck caused by Chick Hicks and are even more surprised when McQueen manages to carefully weave through the accident, avoiding contact. When the race results in the first three-way tie in Piston Cup history, Darrell and Bob are ecstatic, excitedly jabbering while trying to determine the winner.

A tie-breaker race is held at the [[Los Angeles International Speedway]] to determine the true winner, and Darrell and Bob commentate that as well. They are surprised when they notice the [[Doc Hudson|Fabulous Hudson Hornet]] is serving as McQueen's crew chief. Darrell later comments on McQueen's actions on forfeiting the win so he can help The King, stating that he's giving him a slight bump draft following his crash to Chick Hicks.

Darrell Cartrip, Cars

Darrell Cartrip is a 1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, who announces for the Racing Sports Network. He is usually associated with the Piston Cup Racing Series, but occasionally commentates other events, such as Miles Axlerod's World Grand Prix. He is known for his comedic and lighthearted style of commentary, which often contrasts his fellow announcers' more serious and traditional approach. Darrell is also a retired Piston Cup champion.

History

Cars

Darrell Cartrip and Bob Cutlass.

In Cars, Darrell and Bob Cutlass commentate the 2005 Dinoco 400. At the start of the race, Darrell and Bob introduce The King, Chick Hicks, and Lightning McQueen to the audience, explaining that the three cars are tied with a score 5,013 points, and the winner of the race will take home the Piston Cup. They are shocked at the 33-car wreck caused by Chick Hicks and are even more surprised when McQueen manages to carefully weave through the accident, avoiding contact. When the race results in the first three-way tie in Piston Cup history, Darrell and Bob are ecstatic, excitedly jabbering while trying to determine the winner.

A tie-breaker race is held at the Los Angeles International Speedway to determine the true winner, and Darrell and Bob commentate that as well. They are surprised when they notice the Fabulous Hudson Hornet is serving as McQueen's crew chief. Darrell later comments on McQueen's actions on forfeiting the win so he can help The King, stating that he's giving him a slight bump draft following his crash to Chick Hicks.

Cars: The Videogame

In the story mode of Cars: The Videogame, Darrell is the sole commentator throughout the 2006 season. At the first race at Palm Mile Speedway, Darrell explains that with The King retired, the rivalry between Chick and McQueen is stronger than ever. In Piston Cup Races, Darrell frequently makes remarks about the player and the other racers.

After McQueen and Chick agree to a competition called the Radiator Springs Grand Prix, the Racing Sports Network decides to cover it, and Darrell announces alongside Mater.

Darrell is also a playable character in arcade mode, though he can only be selected in Piston Cup races. He has high stats all-around, with great speed, handling, and stability, and decent handling. Darrell also still comments on the race even when he is selected to be played as.

Cars 2

In Cars 2, Darrell Cartrip is selected by Miles Axlerod to host the World Grand Prix, among two others, Brent Mustangburger and David Hobbscap. He is still his jumpy self and is once again the comedic announcer compared to the others.

Cars: Fast as Lightning

In Cars: Fast as Lightning, both Darrell and Bob Cutlass make cameo appearances on each racer's track. They are seen in the skybox up in the bleachers, supposedly commentating the races that happen.

Cars 3

In Cars 3, Darrell and Bob return to announce the 2016 and 2017 Piston Cup seasons. They often highlight the friendship between Lightning McQueen, Bobby Swift, and Cal Weathers. Once Jackson Storm starts a winning streak, Darrell and Bob are continually impressed by his victories. During the final race of the 2016 Piston Cup season, Darrell comments on how McQueen is fading fast before he spins out of control and crashes. He along with Bob & Natalie Certain commentated at the Florida 500, the first race of the 2017 Piston cup season.

Cars 3: Driven to Win

In Cars 3: Driven to Win, Darrell serves as the announcer for all racing events in the game, similar to his story mode appearance in Cars: The Videogame.
