History

Winford Bradford Rutherford was a stock race car that lived in the United States. He graduated Ivy League university with physics degree a couple years prior to 2006. While being in university, he studied physics mechanics that could give him an advantage in racing, such as momentum and velocity. His doctor and lawyer friends at the country club found his idea of using science for racing ridiculous. Winford eventually had became a highly respected racing driver competing in Piston Cup Racing Series for RPM racing team with number 64. During races he used his knowledge of physics to cheat the wind and out-maneuver other racers, which made other racers affectionately call him "The Professor".

In 2006 he competed in Dinoco 400 race at the the Motor Speedway of the South, Motor City, United States, which was the final race of the Piston Cup season. During the race, Chick Hicks bumped into Winford causing him to hit Murray Clutchburn and start an accident that included almost all of the competitors. He received small damages, but was able to continue racing.

Sometime between the 2006 and 2017 he stopped competing in Piston Cup Racing Series and got replaced by RPM team with Bruce Miller.

Profiles and statistics

• An Ivy League school may seem like an unlikely place to start in the racing world. But only a couple of years ago Winford Bradford Rutherford was grille-deep in physics books learning about momentum, velocity and anything else that would give him an edge on the track. His doctor and lawyer friends at the country club thought he was crazy, but the studying paid off. Winford is now a highly respected Piston Cup racer. He uses his vast knowledge of physics to cheat the wind and out-maneuver his fellow racers, who affectionately call him, "The Professor.

Trivia

• In Disney Infinity, there is a character named Pace Car who has some resemblance to Winford, with a few minor differences, such as the two numbers being the opposite way around.
• His last name "Rutherford" might be an homage to Ernest Rutherford, who was a scientist that discovered the nucleus. This might also be the reason why his nickname is "The Professor" and how he has a vast knowledge of science.
• In the 2019 die-cast mainline, he is mistakenly called Bruce Miller, which is actually the name of the veteran in Cars 3.
