Petrol Pulaski

"Petrol" Pulaski is a mechanic and member of the official RPM racing team's pit crew. Once a member of the Eighth Street Carburetors gang, Petrol got into a street brawl with another vehicle, which led to him being apprehended by police. He was placed into a rehabilitation program that eventually led to his first trackside assignment, allowing him to work under Chief RPM's command.

History[]

Petrol's only appearance is in Cars. During the opening montage of the Dinoco 400, Petrol is seen holding up a can of Nitroade to Winford Bradford Rutherford's mouth so he can drink from it.

Physical description[]

He is a 2003 Nemomatic Propane-Powered Forklift with brown eyes and a yellow and orange livery. His roof is stylized to look like a cap, and he wears the RPM logo on his sides.
