Okay, so I saw this title floating around online, “What Did Ryan Pemberton Die Of?” and it got me curious. I mean, I knew the name sounded familiar, like someone from the racing world, but I couldn’t quite place him. So, naturally, I decided to do a little digging.
First, I just did a quick search. It turns out, this guy, Ryan Pemberton, was a big deal in NASCAR. Like, a veteran, you know? He passed away on a Sunday, and he was only 54. That’s way too young. It said he was working with JR Motorsports as the competition director for their NASCAR Xfinity Series. I gotta say, that sounds like a pretty important job.
Then, I dug a little deeper into the details of when he actually passed away. He died on April 15, 2022, in North Carolina. It’s always a bit eerie when you find out the exact date, you know? Makes it feel more real.
Next, I tried to find out more about his career. It said he was a crew chief and competition manager. I don’t know a ton about NASCAR, but being a crew chief seems like the person calling the shots during the race, right? And he was involved in more than 600 starts, plus five wins in some national series. That’s some serious experience.

- Searching for reactions
I wanted to see how people were reacting to his passing. I found out that the whole NASCAR community was mourning him. “Another veteran of the sport,” one article said. It’s clear he was well-respected and known by a lot of people in that world.
- Cause of death
So, I looked up the details of his passing. Turns out, there are no details I can find. Maybe his family just wanted to keep it private. I think it’s fair enough.
I’m still a little bummed out, though. You start reading about someone’s life, and even though you never met them, you feel a little connection. And 54 is just too young. It sounds like Ryan Pemberton made a real impact on NASCAR, and he’ll definitely be missed.
