More than 200 minority and female drivers
applied to be part of the 2011 Drive for Diversity
class. Thirty-six of those applicants were invited
to try out at the Drive for Diversity Combine
presented by Sunoco this past October at Motor Mile
Speedway in Radford, Va. Drivers were selected by
Revolution Racing and NASCAR officials based on
their on-track performance and off-track
interviews. This year's class represents drivers
from across North America. Six drivers will return
from 2010.
Mackena Bell of Carson City, Nev.,
returns to the Drive for Diversity program for a
second season, and will race in the NASCAR Whelen

starts in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series
were top-five finishes, while her best finish came
on Aug. 20 when she was second.
Jessica Brunelli of Hayward, Calif., will
race in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series. Her
