Initially sponsored by the Chili Bowl food company of Bob Berryhill, these Nationals are known simply as The Chili Bowl: racing’s winter answer to football’s Super Bowl.
It accommodates over two hundred race rigs, bleachers for thousands of people and an ever-growing trade show. To stroll the aisles of Tulsa’s QuikTrip Center, the home of The Golden Driller, is to rub shoulders with champions from across America.
It’s what racers do when they are not racing. These two upcoming events are very very well attended by racers and by spectators. We ask that you please pray for the chaplain teams that will be ministering at these two big events. At the time of this writing, we are not sure if we will be serving at this event.
