Chili Bowl Past Winners

Kyle Larson Wins 2025 Chili Bowl

 

Chili Bowl results

Kyle Larson added another trophy to his legendary collection with his third Chili Bowl Nationals victory last year. After taking consecutive Chili Bowl crowns in 2020 and 2021, he earned his third with an epic drive in the 40-lap main event in 2025.

Legendary sprint car driver Sammy Swindell, a three-time World of Outlaws champion, holds the record with five Chili Bowl A-Main victories (1989, 1992, 1996, 1998, 2009). He is once again entered in 2024.

Swindell’s son Kevin ranks second in Chili Bowl A-Main victories with four (all in a row from 2010-14), though injuries sustained in a 2015 crash ended his driving career.

Kyle Larson got the Golden Driller Saturday, adding the 2025 Chili Bowl Nationals to 2020 & 2021 wins. Skillful driving & some luck – his car stalled then restarted after contact with Brenham Crouch, then he avoided flipping after a wall climb on lap 37. #ChiliBowl #KyleLarson pic.twitter.com/hYdhLjJ9va
