In ''[[Cars]]'', Claude is seen in the big race at the [[Motor Speedway of the South]]. After [[Chick Hicks]] causes a huge accident between the majority of the competitors, a bruised Claude is out of control but stops in front of [[Billy Oilchanger]], another car in a similar condition. However, Billy is quickly hit by another car and Claude turns to see [[Todd Marcus]] coming his way and Claude finds himself atop Todd's roof. When [[Lightning McQueen]] makes it through the mess, he bounces off of Claude and impresses fans by making and landing a large jump. Claude somehow manages to continue racing.

In Cars, Scruggs has traveled to the Motor Speedway of the South to compete in the Dinoco 400, the final race of that year's season. After Chick Hicks causes a large crash, Scruggs is one of many involved. At one point, Scruggs comes to a stop after spinning out of control, in front of Billy Oilchanger. The two giggle nervously, before another car slams Oilchanger away, and Todd Marcus bumps into Claude. Marcus flipped upside down in the air and landed roof-to-roof with Scruggs. The two eventually spin out and come to a halt, and Lightning McQueen later uses Scruggs to propel himself into the air and over the remainder of the crash. Despite his injuries, Scruggs is fixed up, and he continues the race, though he does not place highly.
