Count Spatula is a monster truck, that first appears in Cars: The Video Game, in which he comes to Radiator Springs alongside Ginormous and The Crippler, to challenge Lightning McQueen to a monster truck rally race.
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. When Lightning accepts, the four compete in a twelve-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 in the Arcade and Versus modes by purchasing him for 90,000 bonus points in Ramone's House of Body Art. 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. While he has poor handling and stability stats, his speed and acceleration stats are high.
In Cars: Mater-National Championship, Count Spatula can be found competing in the first and second Monster Truck Waypoint Races. In the Arcade mode, Count Spatula may appear as an opponent when the player competes in any of the three Monster Truck Waypoint Races. Unlike in Cars: The Video Game, Count Spatula is not a playable character.
Count Spatula makes his third, and, so far, last appearance in Cars: Race-O-Rama. There are five Monster Truck Races and Count Spatula appears in all of them, except in the PlayStation 2 version, in which he does not appear in at all. Like in Cars: Mater-National, he is not a playable character.
