John C Baker is a club-level driver, rated 858, a developing competitor whose competitive record sits at the entry level of organised motorsport. His career on record consists of three starts in PCA Club Racing during 2009, from which he recorded no wins or podium finishes and averaged a 13th-place finish. This modest volume of racing and lack of top-three results place him among the least experienced drivers in the database.[1]
Baker raced in fields that included established club competitors and former champions. His rivals included Josemanuel Gutierrez, the 2006 PCA Club Racing GTC3 champion, and Normand Houle, who won the 2017 PCA Club Racing GTA2 championship; Baker finished ahead of both in single races, though his head-to-head records against them and against stronger club-level drivers such as Michael Piera and Seth Davidow were strongly negative. He also shared the grid with Henri Richard, an FIA Bronze graded driver. Across three shared races against Gutierrez, Baker finished ahead once and behind twice. Against the broader competitive context of his three starts, he was outpaced more often than he outpaced others, particularly by drivers rated in the 1,300s and above.
Baker has been retired from racing since 2009 and has not returned to competition on record.
