CONCORD, NC :: This weekend Mackena Bell heads to Florida as a contender, but hopes to return to North Carolina as a winner. For Bell, the forthcoming races in New Smyrna and Daytona are not only two opportunities to win a race, but also two opportunities to make a statement. In a sport that has traditionally been dominated by men, Bell looks to disprove the notion that gender plays a role in one’s ability to compete in motorsports. Backed by the woman-owned pediatric dentist office, Bell will be piloting the Special Smiles # 21 Toyota Camry, looking to make a strong start to her 2014 campaign and established herself as a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming season.
Mackena Bell (No. 21 Special Smiles Toyota) – Bell, 23, is competing in her fifth season with Rev Racing. In 2013, Bell made the transition from the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series to the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East. During her 2013 campaign she earned her first top 5 finish in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East at Richmond International Speedway. Additionally, she became the highest qualifying female in NASCAR K&N Pro Series East history with a fourth place qualifying effort at the Iowa Speedway.
