With more than 300 entries, the 2019 Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals field has attracted top American racers including stars from Midgets, Late Model Dirt, Super Modified, World of Outlaws, NASCAR, NHRA and USAC. Drivers hail from 30 U.S. states, plus international competition from Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, making it the world's largest indoor race.

Two-time defending champion and NASCAR Xfinity Series regular Christopher Bell is back and expected to take on a strong field of challengers, including five-time Chili Bowl champion Sammy Swindell, two-time Chili Bowl champion Rico Abreu, NASCAR Cup star Kyle Larson, Brad Sweet (Knoxville Nationals winner), Dave Darland, Damion Gardner, Jerry Coons Jr. and retired NASCAR Cup driver Kasey Kahne.

Cost is $99.99 for an annual subscription to racing content or $6.99 for a monthly subscription. Note that the $6.99 pay level is good for a reduced menu of racing offerings and does not include the Chili Bowl Nationals.

The subscription also includes Lucas Oil Sprint Cars and Lucas Oil Late Model races, half the ARCA Racing Series schedule and several other pavement divisions associated with Lucas Oil.
