I'm VERY Excited to announce that I will be racing at Alaska Raceway Park on August 6th and 7th! This track is absolutely amazing and it's truly an honor to be racing there!
Driver Lacy Kuehl will be racing in Memory of Mark Torkelson a type 1 diabetic that inspired many in motorsports.
The logo represents a gear/sprocket and in harmony, they can go any speed with perfection. The hands are a helping hand. Mark gave anyone anything they needed. He owned a lodge couple hundred miles by airplane and he was known as people’s saving grace. He would go get anyone who broke down. Racing he was the best field mechanic there ever was.
This logo is perfection in mechanical and a helping hand. Thank you, Mark, Your legacy lives on.

Drive for Diabetes Awareness, INC. Inks a Sponsorship deal
with Driver Jason Alder for the FR Americas Program for 2022
“Jason Alder will help bring awareness of Diabetes to the motorsports world”
March 3, 2022 – Drive for Diabetes Awareness, INC, inks a sponsorship deal with 18-year-old Jason Alder and will be the primary sponsor with the DFDA logo on the side of Alder’s #77 Ligier JSF3 and front and center on his racing suit throughout the 2022 season which includes 18 races at 6 tracks in 6 different states.
2022 Formula Regional Americas rookie Jason Alder started racing 12 years ago at the young age of 6 in Go Karts. He is a Championship caliber driver but most importantly to DFDA, he has an education as an Eagle Scout and proper upbringing. Jason Alder has a presence that he brings when he walks into a room and he loves working with the kids. Jason is very social with the public and always brings a smile. Alder has shown his passion for diabetes awareness, and we welcome him to the greatest diabetes awareness organization in the world, Drive for Diabetes Awareness, INC.
Alder most recently Winning races in both the F4 United States Championship and the FR Americas Championship Powered by Honda in 2021. Alder is ready to take on 2022. Alder is a Winner on and off the track.
Whilst speaking with the Vice President of Drive for Diabetes Awareness, INC Heather Kuehl said,
“It’s most difficult to find drivers like Jason Alder to be a brand ambassador for Drive for Diabetes Awareness, INC. Most drivers just want, want, want but Jason is philanthropic! Jason Alder is different. And for that reason alone, this relationship is priceless.”
Drive for Diabetes Awareness, INC is a 501 (C) (3) non-profit founded in 2014 by Brent Kuehl whose mission is to create public awareness for diabetes screening, particularly of young children, and to distribute information by pamphlets and similar communications at sporting events. DFDA seeks to inform the public about the symptoms of diabetes, the dangers of untreated diabetes and provides support for those dealing with a diagnosis. “Check Don’t Guess” it may not be the flu.
“I am excited to have Drive for Diabetes Awareness on the side of my car and racing suit as it’s not just a sponsorship deal for me, but something that is close to my heart,” expressed Alder. “I have a family member that suffers from the effects of Type 1 diabetes and know a lot of people who struggle to live with diabetes every day. My team boss from TJ Speed, Tim Neff has a daughter who is living with this as well. Living with Diabetes is not easy, and our initiative will bring more awareness to the disease in and around the motorsport's world.”
While the Drive for Diabetes Awareness logo will be seen on the track, Alder will be doing work for the program off the track as well. With a handful of events already confirmed and several more in the works, Alder will act as a Brand Ambassador for Drive for Diabetes Awareness, INC.
Alder will be working with the series, race teams, and even competitors and spectators to provide them as much knowledge and information as possible about diabetes awareness and how dangerous it can be to ignore the symptoms of diabetes.
Alder will be one of two drivers in 2022 in different forms of motorsports that will help promote the Drive for Diabetes Awareness mission. While Jason Alder will see action in the FR Americas series with team TJ Speed, spokesperson and driver Lacy Kuehl will support the program in her youth development US Legend car with Team MVP Motorsports Chris Hamm. Look for these two drivers to work events off the track as a team and talk LIVE with fans and supporters to bring more fans into the motorsport's world and to share about diabetes awareness.
In 2019 Driver Lacy Kuehl, NASCAR Drive for Diversity Youth Development Driver met Jason Alder at Charlotte Motor Speedway during the Bojangles Summer Shootout Series racing legend cars. She was only 12 years old and handing out the charity’s tri-fold color brochures in the garages when she met Alder. Lacy believes “Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity.”
The DFDA slogans are "Check Don’t Guess! It may not be the FLU!” and “Education is Knowledge and Knowledge is the power to help Save Lives.”
“Early warning signs and symptoms of Diabetes”
Vision Changes, Fruity Breath, Vomiting, Unconsciousness, Lethargy, Extreme Thirst, Sudden Weight Loss, Increased Appetite, Heavy Labored Breathing, Confusion, Frequent Urination.
Alder’s efforts will help increase the knowledge of those around us to help them understand how serious undiagnosed Diabetes really is. Knowledge complacency can be a real killer. We are very excited to have Jason Alder on board as millions will learn and remember the early warning signs of Type 1 diabetes. Jason will inspire many as a role model for diabetes awareness. The value Jason Alder will bring to Drive for Diabetes Awareness is priceless.
With the 2022 FR Americas Powered by Honda set to kick off on April 8th – 10th at NOLA Motorsports Park in Avondale, LA look for more news from Jason Alder and the Drive for Diabetes Awareness program in the very near future.
Jason Alder and the AB Motorsports team actively support the mission of Drive for Diabetes Awareness charity by donating 10% of all future sponsorship dollars. It’s a way for Jason to give back and help continue the mission to help share diabetes awareness.

Twice the the Doctors said Rocco had the FLU. Twice they were wrong telling Rocco to go home and that he did as Lacy's Hero as she has stated in an interview at the 2018 Inverness Grand Prix. It may just be Diabetes not the FLU...... "Check Don't Guess"
ketoacidosis (DKA) is a potentially life-threatening complication of diabetes mellitus. Signs and symptoms will include false diagnosis of the FLU with DKA being overlooked or improperly treated which may include vomiting, abdominal pain, deep gasping breathing, increased urination, weakness, confusion, and occasionally loss of consciousness. A person's breath may develop a specific smell. Onset of symptoms is usually rapid. In some cases people may not realize they previously had diabetes. DKA can happen to anyone>
Triggers may include infection, not taking insulin correctly, stroke, and certain medications such as steroids. DKA results from a shortage of insulin; in response the body switches to burning fatty acids which produces acidic ketone bodies. DKA is typically diagnosed when testing finds high blood sugar, low blood pH, and ketoacids in either the blood or urine.
The primary treatment of DKA is with intravenous fluids and insulin. Depending on the severity, insulin may be given intravenously or by injection under the skin. Usually potassium is also needed to prevent the development of low blood potassium. Throughout treatment blood sugar and potassium levels should be regularly checked. Antibiotics may be required in those with an underlying infection. In those with severely low blood pH, sodium bicarbonate may be given; however, its use is of unclear benefit and typically not recommended.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D, insulin-dependent or juvenile) can occur at any age, but most commonly is diagnosed from infancy to the late 30s. With T1D a person’s pancreas produces little or no insulin. Although the causes are not entirely known, scientists believe the body’s own defense system (the immune system) attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. People with T1D must inject insulin several times every day or continually infuse insulin through a pump.
While its causes are not yet entirely understood, scientists believe that both genetic factors and environmental triggers are involved. Its onset has nothing to do with diet or lifestyle.
There is nothing you can do to prevent T1D, and – at present- nothing you can do to get rid of it.

Education about the symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes is critical because Type 1 can easily be mistaken for more common illnesses, such as the flu, and misdiagnosis can have tragic consequences.
