Racing career

edit

Xfinity Series

edit

Baca made his Xfinity Series debut at Watkins Glen, driving the No. 40 car for MBM Motorsports in a partnership with NextGen Motorsports. He started 35th and finished 31st in his Xfinity Series debut. He competed in the next race at Watkins Glen. This time, he drove the No. 13 car, also for MBM Motorsports in a partnership with NextGen Motorsports. He started 29th, and finished 18th, improving greatly on his previous result.

On January 22, 2018, it was announced that Baca would be racing for NextGen Motorsports part-time along with Marcos Gomes and Landon Huffman.[2] However, this did not end up happening due to a lack of sponsorship and the team encountering financial problems. NextGen would not field their Xfinity team and only compete in the Truck and K&N East Series that year.
