Biography
Chim Chim and Spritle are an inseparable team and have a way of popping up at just the right time to pull Speed out of peril, so that he can go on to save the day. Most frequently they do this by sneaking inside the Mach 5's trunk. The two often challenge and overcome muscle-bound thugs or gun-toting gangsters using slingshots, small rocks, and food as weapons. Of course, their efforts sometimes make matters worse. Packing as much slapstick punch as “The Three Stooges.” These two love candy so much that they fight between themselves over whatever bribes they manage to collect. Needless to say, they eat a ton of candy!

Though he can't speak, he does manage to use body language effectively enough to get his intentions across.
