The Keith Kunz Motorsports lineup has been set for the 2025 edition of the Chili Bowl Nationals, and it's gigantic. 

The eight-time Chili Bowl winning team will be preparing 16 cars for the biggest Midget race on the planet, fielding rides for drivers ranging from a past Chili Bowl champion, to former preliminary night winners, to debutants from a different racing discipline.

NASCAR Cup Series star Christopher Bell returns to the Chili Bowl with KKM for the first time since he finished second with the team in 2022. Bell is a three-time winner of the event, doing so consecutively in 2017-2019.

Buddy Kofoid and Tanner Carrick returns to the team after opening up the first two preliminary nights with feature wins last year. Cannon McIntosh is also a multi-time preliminary feature winner returning to the KKM stable in 2025.

Ryan Timms returns to the legendary KKM No.67 that has been piloted by the likes of Bell and Kyle Larson. Former Tulsa Shootout winner Emerson Axsom joins the team for a second straight Chili Bowl, while Taylor Reimer, Mariah Ede, Gavin Miller and Kale Drake all return to KKM.

Ashton Torgerson makes his KKM Chili Bowl debut after driving for the team full-time in the 2024 Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series season, as well as Micro Sprint standout Alex Karpowicz, who makes his first-ever start with the team during Tuesday night’s preliminary. New Zealand’s Michael Pickens joins the team after making a one-off start at Kokomo Speedway and finishing second last June.

It was recently announced that Jacob Denney will join the team for the Xtreme Outlaw Midget campaign, and he’ll race for KKM at the Chili Bowl.  

The Northeast Big Block Modified scene will be represented by two-time and defending Super DIRTcar Series champion Mat Williamson and Short Track Super Series South Region champion Alex Yankowski making their Chili Bowl debuts.
