Latest Chili Bowl Entry List Features Nearly 350 Entries

It's likely only a matter of time until the all-time record for entries at the Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals is broken. On Tuesday, event officials released an updated list of entries that included the names of 346 drivers or to-be-announced entries for the crown jewel of Midget racing. 

That number of 346 is just 27 shy of breaking the all-time record of 372 entries for the event in 2017. At this point, all signs point towards a record-breaking year. 

Since the first entry list was revealed on November 30, a large contingent of former Chili Bowl winners, dirt racing stars, NASCAR stars and IndyCar stars have thrown their hat into the ring. 

2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion and two-time defending Chili Bowl Nationals winner Kyle Larson has officially filed an entry for the event with hopes of scoring his third straight win. Larson is coming off one of the best seasons in motorsports history, with success on the NASCAR Cup Series circuit and in some of the biggest dirt track races of the year. 

This year, Larson will be piloting his own Kyle Larson Racing car and will bring along 2020 NASCAR Cup Series champion Chase Elliott along for the ride. Elliott made his Chili Bowl Nationals debut one year ago and saw his bid come to an end in the F-Main. This year, after gaining more experience on dirt throughout the year, he'll be looking to improve on his performance. 

Three-time Chili Bowl Nationals winner Christopher Bell will once again return to his home state for his favorite race of the year. This time, he'll reunite with Keith Kunz Motorsports in search of his fourth Golden Driller trophy. 

Other former champions entered include the event's all-time winningest driver Sammy Swindell, two-time winner Rico Abreu, 2006 winner and Dirt Late Model star Tim McCreadie and 1990 winner John Heydenreich.

Once again in 2022, the Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals will showcase top talent for various racing divisions including NASCAR, IndyCar, Sprint Cars, Midgets, Dirt Late Models, Pavement Late Models and more. 

In addition to Larson, Elliott and Bell, fellow NASCAR Cup Series drivers Alex Bowman and Chase Briscoe will be having their own Chili Bowl fun. Former NASCAR driver turned Sprint Car team owner Kasey Kahne will also return to the event in January. 

Indianapolis 500 starter Conor Daly and part-time IndyCar driver Santino Ferrucci will represent the IndyCar ranks. 

2021 USAC National Midget Series champion Buddy Kofoid returns to the event with Keith Kunz Motorsports, while 2021 USAC National Sprint Car Series champion Brady Bacon is slated to attempt the race for the 18th straight year. 

The top two drivers in the 2021 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series point standings will also be competing in this year's event. Series champion Brad Sweet and championship runner-up David Gravel have both filed entries.

Open-wheel standout Tanner Thorson, who is always strong at the Tulsa Expo Center, has also been added to the entry list. 

Gateway Dirt Nationals Midget winner Jonathan Beason and KKM Giveback Classic winner Steven Snyder Jr. have also officially entered the event. 

Former NASCAR Cup Series driver and open-wheel standout J.J. Yeley will also return to the Chili Bowl hoping to add to his three top-five finishes.

A full look at the list of 346 entries can be viewed at the bottom of this story. 

The Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals begin Monday, January 10 with the first of five nights of preliminary action. Those five nights will set the stage for the infamous run through the alphabet soup on Saturday, January 16 leading into the A-Main event. 

All of the action prior to the C-Mains on Saturday will be broadcast live on FloRacing. The C-Mains, B-Mains and A-Main will be broadcast live on MAVTV.
