The arca series is a shell of what it used to be and frankly isn’t worth the price of admission imo. It used to be the race of the year for me with 30 to 40 cars showing up. Good mix of arca vets...

His career just at Eldora was the stuff of legend. Lots of highs and a few lows. He was ALWAYS the show.

Re: Chili Bowl Live on FLO Racing

I would think it is included in the annual Flo charge. Presently it is $150 for all of their content. The article does not mention a separate price for the Chili Bowl.
