Retro Focus – Barry Baker TC3

Sat-BakerTC3-1

4-time Reedy International Touring Car Race of Champions winner Barry Baker has brought along his 2002 title winning Team Associated TC3 and trophy for us to have a look at. The car that won Baker his third RROC title on the iconic event’s first visit to Tamiya Raceway, it is also the same car that the Californian used to TQ the 2002 Worlds in South Africa which took place just the weekend before. The car was never run again so Baker had to build another one to win the ROAR Nationals a fortnight later to cap off a great few weeks. Its interesting to see how much touring car has developed over the past decade & a half and its great to see Barry still running and still winning races.

After the recent ISTC World Championships in California, Red RC gets ready to switches from electric power to nitro power as well as travel to the other side of the World to bring you coverage of the 10th edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Nitro World Championship. With support from Maxima RC Racing Fuel, T-Work’s Asia, Rapicon Max Power RC Fuel, SMART-Workshop, and Infinity, we are excited to be returning to Huge RC Circuit in Bangkok, Thailand, the track of former ISTC World Champion Suirkan Chaidajsuriya hosting the WC for a second time. In 2014 we got to witness Alexander Hagberg claim his first & Xray’s second World title at this unique (and huge!) indoor track. With 2024 a year that we have already seen two historic World title hat tricks, will we see Infinity’s Tadahiko Sahashi become the first ever driver to defend their 1:10 Nitro title? Our coverage starts on November 19 (Tuesday) and runs through to Saturday’s title deciding 1-hour final. We looking forward to you following along as IFMAR crowns its final World Champion of 2024.
