Notice >> Traction Control Forbidden In Chili Bowl Competition
TULSA, Okla. (December 14, 2022) While the rules are very limited in Chili Bowl competition; officials will be watching for the use of traction control during the 2023 event.
Specifically, the R1i Outlaw: Part #R51-024 by EFI Technology. Anyone caught using this specific programable ignition system will be disqualified. The top three each night will be checked.
"We want the best driver to win. Not the driver with the best traction control, and seeing as this part has already been addressed in Midget competition outside the Chili Bowl, we will stand that it cannot be used as well," explained Chili Bowl Director, Matt Ward.
If anyone has questions, they can contact Matt Ward at (918) 838-3777.
