TULSA, Okla. — The list of drivers invited to compete in the 15th annual O’Reilly Auto Parts Invitational Race of Champions has been set, with drivers from all walks of life invited to join in the annual exhibition of talent.
Combining Chili Bowl winners, both Saturday and preliminary, as well as past Race of Champions winners, series champions and drivers invited by the Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals, there are 19 drivers slated to compete.
“This is a neat part of the Chili Bowl, where we can showcase champions and drivers across the sport in a race that some, otherwise, would not have the chance to go head-to-head. It’s become something that teams and fans look forward to,” said event director Matt Ward.
The event will take place during Monday’s Cummins Qualifying Night.
