There was no rest for Kayla, however, as she hopped a flight to Tulsa, Oklahoma to compete in the 38th annual Chili Bowl Nationals sprint car event. 

Roell won the J-Main and got a "cool little plaque" as seen in the photo above. 

She went on to finish 9th in the I-Main completing an impressive run at one of the most prestigious sprint car events in the country.
