The driver lineup combines Bell's impressive GT4 credentials, including championships in 2021 and 2023, with Cooper's extensive racing experience, highlighted by his 2022 Rolex 24 At Daytona LMP3 class victory and recent IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge win at Daytona International Speedway.

Bell's relationship with Racers Edge dates back to 2017, where he secured his first victory at VIR. After dominating the GT4 category with 15 race wins, he's ready to step up to GT3 competition. "After seven successful years in GT4, including two championships with Aston Martin Racing, it's time to take the next step and compete in the big show," Bell stated.

Cooper, who will serve as both Bell's coach and co-driver, brings an impressive racing resume, including the 2020 SRO America GT4 Pro series championship with 11 victories, the 2017 GT3 Sprint-X Pro/Pro Championship, and the 2015 GTS drivers' championship in Pirelli World Challenge.

The pair previously demonstrated their chemistry during a partial season in GT4 America in 2023, showing strong competitive form. "Jason made the jump to GT3 last year, got his feet wet, and now we are diving head-first into the big races in SRO America," Cooper commented, expressing enthusiasm for their 2025 campaign.
