Loudon 2017
Ryan Reed drove his way to a 14th-place finish Saturday afternoon at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in his No. 16 Lilly Diabetes Ford. Reed started the race 19th and worked his way up to 14th by lap 30 when the field was red flagged for rain. Once racing resumed Reed maintained his track position over long green flag runs, while dealing with a tight handling condition all the way to the checkered flag.
Reed on Loudon
“I really enjoy going up there, the fans are great and the race track is so much fun. It can be really hard to pass, but it is also racy there. There’s a lot of rubber, then the VHC or PJ1 and the track compound they’re putting down are some variables to keep in mind. We, as a race team, have worked on our stuff a lot from a year ago to try and get better on the short-track, flat-track approach.”
