Occupation

Rustbucket Race Car

Performer

E.J. Holowicki

Judd (called Jud on diecast) is one of Mater's cousins. He is very cheeky and unconfident. His number in the Rustbucket derby is 5, and his license plate is completely blank (except on the Wii and PS3 versions of Mater-National, where it reads "Judd").

Cars: The Video Game

In Cars: The Video Game, Judd competes in Rustbucket Race-O-Rama, where he is normally one of the faster cars, usually only losing to Zeke. He is not playable.

Cars: Radiator Springs Adventures

Judd does not appear in the game, but a cousin colored bronze with purple stripes is often interpreted to be Judd (this is just one of Cletus' alt. palettes).

Cars: Mater-National Championship

Judd competes in Rustbucket Races 3 and 4, usually placing 4th. He still isn't playable. In Race 1's cut scene, he and five other cousins are shown to be immobilized by love with Emma, and only Tommy Joe is able to tell Mater what is happening, when he says to "act natural", Judd hides behind the cousins and is ran over by both Lewis and Cletus.

Cars: Race-O-Rama

Judd is in the game, however, he can never be seen, since he is not a playable character, and he does not show up as an opponent in any event. There were once a handful of rumors that there were ways to make him appear in-game, but none were ever true. As of very recently, mods have finally surfaced to show him in full glory in Race-O-Rama, along with making him playable.

Cars:IGNITE Remake

Judd had largely been considered to be a playable character, but he never was, as the project never came to be.

World of Cars Storybook

Judd, along with Cletus and Buford, grew up with Mater, and taught him how to drive backwards. When Mater raced against Bubba, he did the countdown for them. He also had a following diecast release at a production sale of 4000. Bubba and the three cousins have since been the only video game-only characters to have diecast releases.

Livery

Judd is colored gold with two navy blue/white stripes heading down his body. He also has the number 5 printed on his side and number boards. Judd's window net is often "default", but is fixed on his diecast and artwork, and has a major tear in the Wii and PS3 versions of Cars: Mater-National Championship.

Personality

Judd is extremely unconfident and sometimes can actually be heard saying he has never won a race and that he wishes his mother were there to help him. When he passes his enemies, he will usually get cheeky, saying they were being neighborly and asking how he passed them.

Abilities

Judd's bio from the World of Cars book states he can "Ski" between buildings. Also, in Cars: Mater-National Championship, he is shown to have a very odd ability to stand perfectly still and not even have to breathe.

Trivia

  • In Cars: The Video Game, Judd is not real, he is actually a clone of Tommy Joe.
    • As a result, his icon (along with those of Lewis and Buford) can be found in the coding of Cars: Mater-National Championship.
  • In Cars: Mater-National Championship, he has no animations, meaning he does not have to breathe or relocate his pupils to see where he goes. However, he was later given animations in more recent versions of the Hi-Octane Mod. He also had no animations in Cars Race-O-Rama either, but by the time he was unveiled in the mods, he had been given full animations.
  • His icon is of a unique size, bigger than Zeke's, but not as big as Tommy Joe or Lewis'.
  • Judd has the most eye colors in the series, they are green in Cars: The Video Game, blue in Cars: Mater-National Championship, and gold on his diecast.
    • It may also be noted that while Judd's diecast has gold eyes, they are blue on the packaging.
  • Judd is the only one of the six cousins who does not rather oddly appear in the intro of Cars: Mater-National Championship.
  • Judd is the only cousin to have three different window nets.
  • Judd's teeth are black instead of white on the PS2 version of Cars: Mater-National Championship. They were also discovered to be brown in Cars: Race-O-Rama.
  • Judd's codename is "Judd" in Mater-National, but his codename in Race-O-Rama is "Jud".
  • Judd and Buford are the only cousins not to return in Cars: Race-O-Rama, though they are in the coding of the game.
