Behind the scenes

• In design, Rufus bares some similarities to Huckleberry Hound villain, Powerful Pierre, who, coincidentally, was also voiced by Daws Butler.
• Rufus' original model sheet spells his name as "Ruffus," however, his name in most other places is simply just spelt as "Rufus."
• In the Japanese dub for Wacky Races, Rufus's name is Don Kappe (ドン・カッペ).
