At this past weekend’s Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals at Gainesville, Florida, Canadian racer Jim Bell carded a career-best 5.959 seconds pass at 246.89 mph in his twin-turbocharged JB’s Power Centre 2013 Mustang to qualify 15th in NHRA Pro Mod.

It set up a first-round pairing for eliminations against Mike Janis, who ran 5.862 at 247.93 to start number two in his supercharged 2012 Camaro.

“We knew it would be tough just to make the field this weekend against 27 of the best Pro Mods in all of North America,” Bell stated after qualifying concluded Saturday night (Mar. 15). “We also felt that we could run with Mike with some minor tuning changes.”
