Trivia
- He is named after Pixar employee, Roger Miller.
- He shares the same model as the Mood Springs Crew Chief.
- His diecast is also an inaccurate model, depicting him as the same model as the diecast versions of Chief Chick and Dexter Hoover.
- If Lightning Mcqueen did accept Tex's offer of becoming the new racer for Dinoco, it's possible that Roger Wheeler would become Lightning Mcqueen's crew chief alongside his colleagues becoming his pit crew. On the other hand, due to Doc Hudson being a very famous racing figure, Roger would possibly be replaced by Doc instead.
- Although, he does not appear in Cars 3, there is an animation error in a scene where Strip Weathers' (as Cal Weathers' crew chief) is combined with a pickup truck that resembles Roger himself (despite notable differences in model) which could suggest that Roger Wheeler was intended to be Cal's crew chief in the said film as opposed to The King (Strip Weathers).[2]
