biggest reason's my guess was 4 of 5 were off runin other types of Cars/Scheds.!!...Thorson, Rico, Bell,Larson!!..don't know what Kt,Jr was up to or why he lost the POINT LEAD prior to runin Vermeil Classic out West??..I also know I wouldn't ask Keith Kunz either!!..as I did in Pits at Calistoga!!...

Lets also not forget that Hines had both a broken collar bone and then broken ribs Was searching for a crew chief right up till seasons started and still won it.
Frankly I was a little surprised he hadn't won the midget championship before hand.

My guess would be is track size. Perris is a 1/2 mile so unless you have big money you have no chance to win and you have to travel all that way. Chili bowl is in a much more central location and a tiny track.

Honestly, You cannot link the Chili Bowl to anything else. It is essentially its own series, event and class. Half the cars run no other nights of the year. And no other series except NZ and AU are running.
