Jason Bell brings impressive credentials, including two SRO America GT4 championship titles (2021, 2023) and a runner-up finish in the 2022 Pirelli GT America GT4 championship, with 15 race victories. Bell's connection with Racers Edge dates back to 2017, where he secured his first victory at VIR.

Silver-rated Michael Cooper adds significant experience to the team, highlighted by:

  • 2022 Rolex 24 At Daytona LMP3 class victory
  • 2025 IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge Daytona win
  • 2021 GT World Challenge America victory
  • 2020 SRO America GT4 Pro series championship with 11 wins
  • 2017 GT3 Sprint-X Pro/Pro Championship
  • 2015 GTS drivers' championship in Pirelli World Challenge

The pair has already demonstrated strong chemistry, having competed together in GT4 America during 2023. Cooper will serve as both Bell's coach and co-driver as Bell transitions from his successful GT4 career to the more demanding GT3 category. The team will also compete in the GT America races at the Grand Prix of Long Beach.
