Rip Clutchgoneski is a race car from New Rearendia. He competes in the Le Motor Prototype racing series. In 2011, he participated in the World Grand Prix where he represented New Rearendia. He races with the number 10.
History
Cars 2
In Cars 2, Rip Clutchgoneski participated in all three World Grand Prix races, as well as in the Radiator Springs Grand Prix. Because of his modest origin from an unknown country and of his lack of titles, Rip can be considered the rookie of the competition. Rip makes a cameo on the tv screen during the Mel Dorado Show when the racers formed the World Grand Prix logo. He didn't make a physical appearance until the Tokyo party where he and the other racers reacted to Mater causing a scene. The first race, in Tokyo, was Rip's best performance. He started from fifth position from the back (the best racers started at the back of the line for this race). Although in the first part of the race he was seen near the end of the pack, he gained places after the dirt section. He finally got up to the third position behind Lightning McQueen and Francesco Bernoulli, but then, had his motor blown out by the lemons and was forced to quit the race, which he was one of the three cars that blew out during the race. In the following races he stayed near or in the last position. Rip was recovered after the race in Tokyo, and raced into 9th position in the Porto Corsa race in front of Jeff Gorvette and Lewis Hamilton. He was one of the last racers to crash in the huge pileup, at the same time as Raoul ÇaRoule. In the London race, Rip was seen in the last position. When the race starts in the Radiator Springs Grand Prix, Rip was pretty fast and raced into the 5th position. He was seen around the 4th or 7th position.
Other Appearances
Rip appears in the Neon Racers book and takes part of the Neon race held by Shu Todoroki. In that book he says his only lines in the entire franchise.
Livery
Rip is painted orange, with green tire wheel wells and red lines on his doors.
Model
Rip is a 2005 Formula 6000 Racer, with a top speed of 199 mph and a 0-60 of 3.1 seconds. His engine is a 3.5-liter DOHC V-8, having 650 horsepower.
Rip's design is reminiscent of Formula One-like production cars, like the Caparo T1. However, he resembles most the little-known New-Zealand super-car Hulme CanAm, of which he bears characteristics elements like its distinctive air dams, wheel covers and boat shaped central body. Hulme's developers reportedly saw this in an unfavorable light and found Rip so similar to their car they considered making a legal action against Disney. However, Rip does differ from the Hulme CanAm by several design elements (F1-like cockpit, different rear end, side vents), and some Caparo T1-derived elements can be spotted. Rip has the Hulme's characteristic orange color (although the Caparo too is frequently presented in orange), and furthermore, concept art reveals he was first designed with black wheel covers, exactly like the Hulme car.
Bio
- The former European colony and newly independent Republic of New Rearendia is desperate to put their name on the map – the #10 open-wheeled racer Rip Clutchgoneski is their best bet. After putting together a remarkable string of qualifying races, Rip’s entry into the World Grand Prix is clearly the Cinderella story of the competition. Though Rip credits luck for his chance on the international stage, it’s really skill and exuberance that brought the proud New Rearendian racer to the starting line.
