Finishing third behind Rico Abreu during the USAC Midget Week after a bruising ride over the cushion and into wall at Lawrenceburg and then tyre problems at Bloomington has the 19 year old Oklahoma racer ready for the 11 nights of 410 Winged Sprintcar action.

Bell will strap into the seat of the Brandon Berryman #31 for the first of 4 races with the ASCS before switching to the Ray Marshall Motorsports #33 for the first 4 Races during the Ohio Sprint Week.
Never still for long Bell will next change seats and climb aboard the Keith Kunz owned #67 for the remaining 3 meetings that complete the Ohio Sprint Week.
Eleven races, 11 different tracks with three different owners is a schedule that will require all the special talent and concentration that that the USAC Champion has at his disposal.
The confidence and trust that the Team Owners have in this young Oklahoma racers underlines his unquestionable talent. Coming to terms with different cars and their set up, crew chiefs and tracks is the life of the professional speedway racers.
Moving up from the Midget into the all powerful 410 Sprintcars might be a daunting task for some but as Bell explained during an interview with Lonnie Wheatley of Sprint Source it’s just part of the job!
Christopher Bell “Once you’re out on the track, go down the straightaway once and into a corner, you figure it out,” Bell says. “Once you’ve done it a time or two, it’s not too bad making the change from one to another.”
Christopher Bell’s schedule starts Wednesday night at Lawton Speedway with the ASCS Speedweek
