Baker entered his first race in 1939 inGreenville, South Carolina,^[2] He entered his first NASCAR race in 1949 atCharlotte Speedway. Baker went on to become one of the greatest drivers inNASCAR's history; he was the first back-to-back winner of theGrand National Championship in 1956 and 1957.^[3] He was second twice (1955 and 1958) and finished in the top five on four other occasions.

Baker's 682 NASCAR starts (44 from thepole) ranks him third all-time and his 46 victories rank him 13th. In 1953, 1960 and 1964, Baker won theSouthern 500 atDarlington Raceway. In 1963, Baker was given credit for winning a race that he clearly did not win.Wendell Scott won the race. NASCAR later reversed its ruling for the race. Scott did not receive the trophy. In 1967, Baker switched to NASCAR'sGrand American division, where he was also very successful.

Baker, along with Roby Combs and Ike Kiser leased motorsport tracks and promoted races early in the 1950s. The three leased Charlotte Speedway in 1950 and promoted races there, before selling their lease toBruton Smith.^[4] In September 1951, they leasedAir Base Speedway, nearGreenville, South Carolina, also to promote races.^[5]

After his retirement in 1976, Baker opened up theBuck Baker Racing School, whereJeff Gordon drove his first stock car. His son,Buddy, was a 34-year Winston Cup veteran and taught at the school along with Buck's daughter, Susie Baker;^[1] his other son,Randy, also competed in Winston Cup and operatesSpeedTech Auto Racing Schools. He came out of retirement in 1993 to compete in 1 Race of the short livedFast Masters.

Awards

[edit]

Baker was inducted into the National Motorsports Press Association's Hall of Fame in 1982,^[1] theInternational Motorsports Hall of Fame^[6] in 1990, and theMotorsports Hall of Fame of America in 1998.^[7] Also in 1998, he was named one of theNASCAR's 50 Greatest Drivers.^[8] On May 23, 2012, it was announced that he would be one of five nominees to be inducted into the 2013 class of theNASCAR Hall of Fame on February 8, 2013.^[9]
