| Nick Baker shines at Talladega, finishing 2nd: After missing the big one at Daytona to win the race, Nick Baker in the final laps was running up front behind friend Jordan Robson anticipating at best a 3rd place finish, when a high line was moving strong to the front. A caution was caused in the back of the field leading to a move by Baker going below Robson to the final caution. Robson blocked and then spun out, slowing Nick Baker down. Nick Baker side blocked Chris Wetz and the collided with Brian Wallace, who was side blocking Wetz also, and Baker spun out right at the line in front of the rest of the field to secure 2nd. Baker flipped twice before catching back up to take the checkered flag in 2nd.
"It was a fun race, I thought I was going good in the pits for the first stop until I saw everyone leave way before me. That dampened my spirits early on until I finally caught a break with a caution. After that, it was go time and I did everything I could to go from the back to the front and made it with a few laps to spare. Unfortunately it wasn't over. Got wrecked and then flipped twice, I thought I wasn't going to be able to finish. I wasn't smoking after the flips and made it to the finish. Crazy finish to a pretty good race!" _________________ Solstice Racing main Admin.

| Nick Baker runs strong, finishes 3rd at Texas: In a race full of action, drama, and a push loose setup, Nick Baker was a factor all night. Nick Baker qualified a strong 4th and picked it up to 3rd early on before spinning out. Fortunately, his spin didn't involve anyone or the wall. "Being able to spin out and not anything was a huge gift for the race as it allowed me to be able to keep racing without any damage." After the spin, he quickly made it towards the front and led some laps before his car got really tight and gave up the lead. On pit strategy, he had some issues when a caution flag left him and many others in the field a lap down. A caution later, he regained his lap and kept up with David Krikorian and Jordan Robson to finish 3rd.
"Well, 3rd was the absolute best I could do with what I had for my driving abilities with a tight setup. I've been using a new race strategy to try to stay out of trouble and wrecks early on and turn on my driving at the end of the race. I wouldn't be 3rd in points, maybe 2nd now, if I drove my hardest every lap in the race. So having that strategy helped me out in some of my races so far. To have a 3rd place car and work to get 3rd is something that proves this team could win a championship. Having the mindset to win championships start with the driver and go through all of the team. I'm not the best driver, but I can compete at the places I need to. Surviving is what you need to do to finish strong, and that's what I've been doing." _________________ Solstice Racing main Admin.

| National Guard to sponsor the #9 at Richmond: In an effort to make the chase (although Baker might already be locked in), Nick Baker will run the #9 National Guard Ford Fusion at Richmond International Raceway. This marks the first race that Baker will be sponsored by NG. _________________ Solstice Racing main Admin.

| NBMotorsports back with Dodge for season 3: Nick Baker and Dodge Motorsports announced that NBMotorsports will return to longtime partner Dodge for the 2011 season. "After a hiatus from Dodge in the COT's, we'll be returning to Dodge. The #9 Dodge Charger will run with sponsorship from Great Clips, Stanley Tools, Valvoline, DeWALT, Dollar General, and Dodge Dealers. As of right now, NBM is returning to a one car team, but we could have a possible 2-3 cars racing. NBM will also be returning to the old Evernham style numbers. 2010 was a great year for the #9 team and we hope to continue that next season."
It was also announced that NBM will be running Dodges in every series it enters for the upcoming seasons. _________________ Solstice Racing main Admin. Career Wins: 40 (Last - Daytona, Studio Speed Retro Superspeedway Series) Career Poles: 38 (Last - Atlanta, Studio Speed Cup Series)
