Enrique "Tatita" Baca (born January 30, 1990) is a Mexican professional stock car racing driver. He currently competes in the NASCAR PEAK Mexico Series, for the Commescope Telcel team.
Racing career
Xfinity Series
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.[1] However, this did not transpire 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.
In February 2025, it was announced that Baca was selected to be the lead stock car driver for the Commescope Telcel team in the 2025 NASCAR Mexico Series season. This marked the return of Baca to the Telmex-Telcel Racing team full-time after eight years.[2]
