Trivia

• The Capitol Motors Verve, Stodgey Suaver, Shyster Cremlin and Crown Celesta are the only known production vehicles that have stock cars modelled after them.
• The Econ 6 YL 3.0 Liter is the only known Capitol Motors model to have an identified and known model year, which is 2004.
• All of the returning racers from Cars that appear in Cars 3 are Mark II's, the same model as Cal Weathers.
  • Out of all of the returning racers, Dirkson was the only one to still be a Capitol Motors.
• Murray Clutchburn's Disney Store diecast inaccurately depict him as a Capitol Motors Verve XT.
• Terry Kargas' first die-cast release was inaccurately the same model as Cal Weathers and the returning Piston Cup racers from Cars. However, this would be fixed later on in a re-release making him the proper model that he is, that being an Axxelo Fission EA.
• Chief RPM's model on his die-cast is instead a Haulital Lugnutter. The die-cast prototype was originally going to be the same as Charlie Checker.
• Although Greg Candyman is a Capitol Motors Verve XT, he does not resemble the other Capitol Motors Piston Cup racers. but rather resembling a Husker Morocco or Stodgey Suaver EX.
  • It is possible that Greg is an older model of the Verve XT.
• Unlike the other Capitol Motors Verve XTs, which have wider builds, Kevin Racingtire has a thinner body, similar to that of a Crown Celesta.
  • Ironically however, Davey Apex is a Crown Celesta but looks like a Capitol Motors Verve XT.
• The Capitol Motors Behemoth XLI is very similar to the Emerycraft Inka and Clebert Scooner.
• The Capitol Motors Verve LX is very similar to the Brawny Motor Co. Shindig SR. However, they have differently designed grills, headlights and wheels.
  • Interestingly, the Tank Coat Crew Chief has the same grill and headlights as Skip Ricter.
  • Furthermore, Earl Filter shares the same grill and headlights as Padre.
• The Capitol Motors Verve JR appears to be a miniature version of the Remirunabout Neuro.
• Axle Accelerator's model bares resemblance to the 1980 Emerycraft Lima.
• In the 1:55 Scale Diecast range, Winford Bradford Rutherford's model is reused for several other characters. These include - Billy Oilchanger, Brush Curber, Chuck Armstrong, Davey Apex, Dirkson D'Agostino, Johnny Blamer, Manny Flywheel, Ryan Shields, and Slider Petrolski.
