In ''[[Cars]]'', Aiken competed in the [[Dinoco 400]] at the [[Motor Speedway of the South]] in [[Motor City]], [[United States]], which was the final race of the Piston Cup season. During the race he had a high position on the track. After [[Chick Hicks]] caused a huge accident between the majority of the competitors, Aiken received small damages, but was able to continue racing. Axler managed to get a good pit stop and restarted in 3rd place just behind [[Ernie Gearson]] and Lightning McQueen. He stayed near the top of the pack for the rest of the race and finished in 5th coming in after the [[Strip Weathers|three]]-[[Chick Hicks|way]] [[Lightning McQueen|tie]] and [[Kevin Shiftright]]. Aiken had finished 8th overall in the season due to being in that position in the point standings. | In ''[[Cars]]'', Aiken competed in the [[Dinoco 400]] at the [[Motor Speedway of the South]] in [[Motor City]], [[United States]], which was the final race of the Piston Cup season.
