Baker Wins the 2009 KO Propo Grand Prix








Congratulations to Barry Baker on his dominant performance last weekend at the 2009 KO Propo Grand Prix. Hosted by the brand new facility at West Coast Raceway in La Mirada, California, the event was directed by Charlie Suangka. Among the perks for those in attendance were permanent corner marshalls as well as complimentary breakfasts for all racers on both days. KO Propo America also provided gift bags for every competitor. As an associate sponsor of the event, P1 Brand designed and produced the number decals for all of the vehicles, tech stickers for the spec tires, the complimentary event tee shirts and even assisted with the concepting of the podium and backdrop for the award presentation.

Baker earned the TQ spots in both 13.5 Expert and Modified classes. He would go on to win both classes in the first two mains, but not before Paul Lemieux put up an amazing fight in the A2 of Modified. Watch for Baker's amazing pass at the 2:15 mark in the video above, on the tightest section of the course!
