- Official bio
- "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.""[1]

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 on Science.
