Technical Report: 39th Annual Chili Bowl Nationals powered by NOS Energy Drink

Random Tire Samples have been collected throughout the 39th annual Chili Bowl Nationals powered by NOS Energy Drink and sent for testing. Results returned so far have confirmed that two samples did not conform to benchmark.

Chemical alteration of tires is prohibited in Chili Bowl competition and will result in the removal of the event or suspension through the next calendar event.

The following drivers have been disqualified from competition during Saturday’s portion of the 2025 Chil Bowl Nationals.

•Clinton Boyles (Scott Beierle)
•Hunter Schuerenberg (JFM)

Teams and drivers were made aware of the results and acknowledged the use of a chemical agent. More samples are being tested. Findings will be reported once provided to the Chili Bowl Nationals.

All samples were taken in the designated Tech Area as soon as the race was completed. Samples were taken using the respective team’s tire groover and witnessed by team members. All samples were placed into a vile and then put into a numbered evidence bag. Each sample, including the date it was taken, race competed in, tire compound, tire serial number, evidence bag number, official’s initials, and a team representative’s signature.

Samples were overnighted to Blue Ridge Race Lab, LLC, located in Lenoir, NC. Samples were checked in duplicate for verification of findings.
