Brent Mustangburger - New Diecast! And another one...


As for the info from Disney Pixar Wika there is one fact that stands out:



My latest find in the local toy store!


Darrell Cartrip and Brent Mustangburger.
They come together in the Cars 2 Movie Moments 2 pack:

Darrell Cartrip is the TV commentary southern gentleman and ex champion car from Cars who gives the race a voice together with Bob Cutlass.

The car is a 1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo and the flames are irresistable.


According to the Pixar Wika-page "Darrell is based on the real life NASCAR Champion driver Darrell Waltrip, who currently works as a television race commentator for Fox Broadcasting and Speed TV."

He also has a catch phrase in the movies: "Boogity, Boogity, Boogity! Let's go racing boys!"
Does anyone know if Darrell Waltrip uses the same in real life?

The main reason I bought this 2 pack was not because of Darrel Cartrip, I already got that one. But when you look at the one I got and this new one you could understand why I still consider myself a bit more happy with the new Darrell:


The mouth is a legendary bad job in the Disney Pixar Diecast-scene. So no more Clown Cartrip for me!

As for the other car, Brent Mustangburger (what a bad name that is!) - he is a real shiny and fresh looking fellow!


  • Brent is based on, voiced by and named after ESPN/ABC sportscaster Brent Musburger
  • Brent Mustangburger is a reporter for the RSN (Racing Sports Network), which appeared prominently in Cars.
  • Brent is a 1965 Ford Mustang Coupe.
  • His licence plate is BWM539. It represents the initials and the birthday (May 1939) of his voice actor, Brent Woody Musburger.
  • The die-cast model of Brent has brown eyes, although Brent Mustangburger himself has green eyes. 

Yes of course I mean the last one. GREEN eyes! O boy! No wonder they changed it to brown. Green Eyes...

Well... I leave you with the fine lines of a 1965 Mustang. What a car!

  1. Yes, the real Darrell Waltrip does use the phrases "boogity, boogity, boogity" and "let's go racin' boys" incessantly on TV. He is one of the commentators for NASCAR on the FOX network here in the US. He is an insufferable loudmouth hillbilly. I cannot stand to listen to him on TV. He is endlessly worshipping Jimmie Johnson, Rick Hendrick and anyone or thing related to Hendrick Motorsports, which is the dominant team in NASCAR.

  5. Cartrip is a great diecast, I really do like him. The real life Waltrip is just a boor and a tool though!
    As far as Musberger, he has been around on TV for as long as I can remember. He is a popular sports announcer/commentator. Nothing objectionable to say about him, he is just a well known broadcasting professional.
    Now Darrell's brother Michael is a whole other story. He recently became the disgrace of NASCAR. He co-owns a team of 3 cars. In the final race leading up to the "play-offs" his drivers intentionally changed the order in which they finished the race in order to skew the results in order to get one of their teammates into the "Chase" (play-offs). He was disgraced, his major sponsors abandoned him and his drivers were disgraced also because they lied in attempts to cover up the scandal.

  6. Wow! This kind of manouvres has always been there in the F1-circus. All the teams always try to deny any kind of orders but everybody knows they exist.
    Ronnie Peterson, our best F1-driver had the problem with a fishy contract his last season 1978. He and Mario Andretti were both in Lotus and Andretti was the unspoken but make-no-mistake-about-it number one. So Ronnie did not have a fair chance.
