Count Spatula (Referred to as C. Spatula in Cars: Mater-National Championship) is a monster truck that came to Radiator Springs to challenge Lightning McQueen to a monster truck race. He debuted in Cars: The Video Game.
History
Cars: The Video Game
In Cars: The Video Game, Count Spatula, The Crippler and Ginormous arrive in Radiator Springs to challenge Lightning McQueen to a monster truck race at the Rustbucket Stadium. Once Lightning accepts, the four compete in a 12-lap race that brings in many fans from all around Carburetor County. Once Lightning wins, they are not seen for the rest of the story mode.
Count Spatula can be unlocked as a playable character by purchasing him for 15,000 bonus points. He is playable in some road races, though he can not be selected for Rustbucket Race-O-Rama, Sally's Wheel Well Sprint, Tailfin Pass Circuit, Delinquent Road Hazards, and Tailfin Pass Grand Prix. He has poor handling and stability, but makes up for his weaknesses with good speed abilities.
Cars: Mater-National Championship
In Cars: Mater-National Championship, Count Spatula can be found competing in Monster Truck Waypoint Race 1 and Monster Truck Waypoint Race 2. He also appears as an opponent in arcade mode, during monster truck races only. Unlike in the previous game, he is not a playable character.
Cars: Race-O-Rama
Count Spatula makes his third, and so far, last appearance in Cars Race-O-Rama. There are 5 Monster Truck Races, and Count Spatula appears in all of them, except on the PlayStation 2 version, in which he doesn't appear in at all. Like the last game, he still remains a non-playable character.
