NASCAR Chamption Ryan Reed

Through every change and challenge. Around every unexpected curve. The checkered flag can be met when focus become your game. It's then that you include the entire team in victory lane. From the iHeart Radio Studio I'm Unplugged and Totally Uncut with NASCAR chamption Ryan Reed About Ryan Reed: Ryan’s racing career began at a young age, capturing the Kid’s Kart Track Championship at the age of four. The Bakersfield, CA native made the long move from California to North Carolina at the age of 17 to surround himself with the racing community. In 2011, Reed was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and told that he would never race again. Instead of giving up, he implemented lifestyle changes that included a strict diet and exercise program, the use of devices to provide track data, and reporting all of this information to his medical team in California. Ryan began his first full NASCAR XFINITY Series Season at the start of 2014, finishing ninth in the points standings. Most recently, Ryan finished in first place during the opening race of the season for the NASCAR XFINITY Series at Daytona, edging out many veteran racers.
