SPRINGFIELD, Ill. – A 32-car entry list has been revealed for Sunday’s USAC Silver Crown Champ Car Series season finale, the Bettenhausen 100 presented by Fatheadz Eyewear at the Illinois State Fairgrounds.

On the driver list for the 100-mile race on the one-mile dirt oval are each of three past Bettenhausen 100 winners: Kody Swanson (2014-15), Justin Grant (2017) and Chris Windom (2018).

Grant leads a tight point race entering the event, the first time in series history that the top-10 have been separated by less than 100 points coming into the final race of the season.

This year’s top-10 has an interval of just 63 points between first and 10th, and Grant leads by just 22 points over Swanson, a five-time Silver Crown driving champion.

Also on the entry list are August’s Hoosier Hundred winner, Kyle Larson (Elk Grove, Calif.), plus six-time All Star Circuit of Champions driving champion, Chad Kemenah (Alvada, Ohio) and the series debut by 2019 Knoxville National winner, David Gravel (Watertown, Conn.).

An eclectic mix of racing stars will also see the three-time, and newly-crowned, USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Champion, Brady Bacon (Broken Arrow, Okla.), along with 2018 USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Champion, Logan Seavey (Sutter, Calif.).

Ten USAC Silver Crown race winners are signed up for Sunday, with K. Swanson, Grant, Windom, Larson and Bacon as well as Jacob Wilson (Crawfordsville, Ind.), Aaron Pierce (Muncie, Ind.), Shane Cockrum (Benton, Ill.), Chris Urish (Elkhart, Ill.) and 2020 season-opening Silver Crown winner Shane Cottle (Kansas, Ill.).

Seven Illini-bred pilots are geared up for Sunday’s race with Windom, Cockrum, Urish and Cottle are joined by Patrick Lawson (Edwardsville, Ill.), Steven Russell (Springfield, Ill.) and Terry Babb (Decatur, Ill.).

Kevin Thomas Jr., a 27-time USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car feature winner, finished 2nd in his first Bettenhausen 100 start in 2018, and he remains on the hunt for his first Silver Crown win this Sunday.

On Sunday, grandstand ticket sales will be limited to 20-percent capacity in order to promote a safe atmosphere and allow for proper social distancing.

In addition, face coverings will be required, temperatures will be checked upon arrival, and multiple handwashing and sanitizing stations will be placed throughout the venue.

Pit gates will open at 8 a.m. CT Sunday, with the grandstands and ticket office following at 11 a.m., practice rolling off at noon, qualifying hitting the track at 1:15 p.m., the last chance race scheduled for 2:15 p.m. and the 57th running of the Bettenhausen 100 presented by Fatheadz Eyewear taking the green at 3 p.m.
