Ryan Reed is a professional stock car racing driver who competed primarily in NASCAR Xfinity between 2013 and 2023, latterly for Roush Fenway Racing. He also made a small number of starts in NASCAR Truck and the ARCA Menards Series. Reed is currently retired from full-time racing.[1]
Across 172 NASCAR Xfinity starts, Reed took two wins and three podiums; he won twice more in ARCA in 2015 and 2016. His Xfinity record came overwhelmingly on ovals, where he ran 157 of his 172 starts in the series. In a 2023 season appearance, he finished 35th in championship points. His career across all series totaled 182 starts yielding four wins and five podiums.[2]
Reed usually finished ahead of Jeremy Clements, a regular opponent in NASCAR Xfinity with over 550 starts at that level. Against Elliott Sadler, an established professional also with substantial Xfinity experience, Reed typically ran behind. He finished ahead of Denny Hamlin, an elite professional and 2025 NASCAR Cup champion, on four occasions, and ahead of Christopher Bell, a Silver-graded driver who won the NASCAR Truck championship in 2017 and the Cup Series in 2024, eleven times across their meetings in Xfinity and Truck racing. Roush Fenway Racing, his primary ride across 138 of his starts, fielded 53 wins across its full roster of 25 drivers and counted Chris Buescher, an established professional, among its stronger drivers.
