RYAN BEAT

Ryan Beat is a fierce competitor and leader in short-course off-road racing. With four Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series (LOORRS) championships, Ryan's passion for racing has driven him to dominate tracks across the U.S. for over a decade. His journey began in Supercross and Motocross, but after an injury, he transitioned to four wheels, where he forged a remarkable career.

Ryan’s rise in off-road racing started in the LOORRS UTV class, where he quickly proved his talent. He joined the Hart & Huntington team, racing a PRO-LITE truck, and finished second in the PRO-LITE Championship. Not one to settle, Ryan launched his own team, quickly establishing it as a powerhouse in short-course racing. His record includes over 40 wins, 95 podium finishes, and the prestigious Rick Huseman Award in 2018 and 2020. Ryan claimed the 2017 PRO-LITE World Championship and secured back-to-back LOORRS PRO-LITE Championships in 2018 and 2019.

Since joining Champ Off-Road, Ryan has raced in PRO-LITE, PRO-2, and the newly formed PRO-SPEC class. In 2021, the series tapped him to help design and launch the PRO-SPEC class to transition drivers from SxS to pro competition. Coming off a successful 2024 with three wins, ten podium finishes, and a second-place finish in the championship, Ryan aims to best that in 2025 during his fifth full-time season of PRO-2 competition.

With Ryan at the helm of Ryan Beat Motorsports (R/BM) as owner/driver, the team stands as the only Chevy OEM factory-backed team in the Champ Off-Road Series. R/BM fields five trucks across three classes with six drivers. Beyond his success on the track, Ryan is dedicated to mentoring young drivers and introducing new partners to off-road racing.

Headquartered in Denver, NC, R/BM operates out of a state-of-the-art 15,000 sq. ft. facility where every truck is meticulously built from the ground up. With his wife Shawna and daughters Reagan and Rylee by his side, Ryan continues to push boundaries, ensuring his legacy in short-course off-road racing.
