is a proud representative of Fueled By The Fallen
A non-profit organization developed to both honor and pay tribute to the men and women who served in the United States Military and sacrificed their own lives to defend our country’s freedom. As a moving monument, a Memorial Race Car Team was created to honor and recognize our fallen American heroes. Each branch of the Military is represented by a racecar that proudly lists the name and rank of these soldiers. These moving monuments are on a 5 year American Road Tour, traveling across the United States raising awareness and financial support for returning veterans as well as the families of the fallen and the injured.

| Welcome to J&B Motorsports In 2003 J&B Motorsports arrived on the national drag racing scene with Paul Lee piloting their Top Alcohol Funny Car. The team went on to win fourteen NHRA Runner-Ups and three NHRA national events. In 2006, the driving gloves were turned over to veteran Cory Lee as the team transitioned into the Fuel Funny Car ranks. In the mid 90’s, Cory Lee arrived in drag racing’s spot light as Tom Hoover’s Crew Chief for his Pioneer Car Stereo sponsored Fuel Funny Car team. After Hoover chose to hang up his driving gloves, he named Lee as the driver. Cory Lee faired well behind the wheel of Hoover’s 6000 horsepower beast. Three years later, Hoover retired from the sport of drag racing. Lee then drove for several other Funny Car teams before stepping into the driver’s seat with J&B Motorsports. When Lee isn’t driving for the J&B team, he’s wearing the Tuner’s hat for Gary Turner’s Nostalgia Fuel Funny Car. J&B Motorsports currently races their Fuel Funny Car in both the NHRA and IHRA series. Thus far, the team has claimed five Fuel Funny Car IHRA Runner-Ups. |
