Los Angeles Tie-Breaker Race

The Los Angeles Tie-Breaker Race is a Piston Cup Racing Series event. In Cars, it is the last race of the 2006 season, and it is held at the Los Angeles International Speedway. Originally, this race was not supposed to happen, however, after the previous race ended in a three way tie between Lightning McQueen, Strip Weathers and Chick Hicks, race officials determined that a tie-breaker race should take place at the Los Angeles International Speedway in order to crown the champion of the 2006 season.

Strip Weathers received a PIT maneuver from Chick Hicks during the race's final lap, he had a horrible crash as he flew into the infield. Lightning McQueen decided to give up the race and help The King cross the finish line, this caused many race fans and even Tex Dinoco to consider him the true winner.
