Junior X30 Driver | Kart #45 Racing with TWM in 2026
Backed by a professional team. Driven by family graft and hard work.
Jack Baker Racing is still built on family graft — Josh and Jack handle the work between race weekends — but for 2026 Jack is stepping up by racing with Team TWM, gaining professional trackside support, coaching and structured development. It’s the next step in turning pace into consistent results.
Born with dyslexia and autism, he calls them his strengths, not weaknesses. Those differences give him exceptional concentration, feel for the kart and an analytical, problem-solving mindset. His calmness under pressure and ability to stay composed in chaotic races have already led to results far beyond expectations.
Now we’re combining that mindset with a professional team environment to push the next level.
Starting in corporate karts, Jack quickly progressed through the ranks, becoming 2024 Junior Pro Champion across all classes at Mr Karting Warwick — winning the Winter, Summer and Autumn Sprint Series, and earning a place at the TB Kart International Final in Paris. In 2025 he continued that momentum, securing the Winter Sprint Championship and setting another lap record.
Now competing in owner-driver Junior X30 on a Birel ART chassis with a JSR-prepared engine, Jack trains daily both physically and mentally — karting, cycling, sim work, and studying onboard footage to refine lines, braking points and racecraft. His progress has already been recognised by professional drivers and even a British Champion, who described him as “extremely talented.”
Despite limited resources, Jack continues to deliver clean drives, smart overtakes, and rapid learning every weekend. The goal is simple: keep developing, keep improving, and keep proving that determination and hard work can level the playing field in motorsport.
We're proud to be part of Team TWM for the 2026 season - a big step in Jack's development journey.

Driver – Junior X30 | #45
Jack Baker is a fast, focused and determined young driver competing in the highly competitive Junior X30 class.
After winning three sprint championships, becoming the Junior Pro Overall Champion from 188 drivers and setting multiple lap records, Jack progressed into owner-driver karting. He later earned a place in the TB Kart International Final in Paris, finishing fifth against some of Europe’s leading young drivers.
Jack has continued to make a name for himself in Junior X30. At the start of the 2026 season, he produced two commanding wet-weather victories at Shenington, including a win by more than nine seconds with the fastest lap. He has remained at the top of the Shenington Junior X30 Championship, regularly fighting at the front against some of the strongest drivers in UK karting.
Now racing with TWM, Jack is known for his calm mindset, clean racecraft and ability to perform when conditions are at their most difficult. His wet-weather pace has become one of his biggest strengths, built through years of practice in cold, wet and challenging conditions.
Jack also has a strong technical understanding of the kart. He studies data, reviews onboard footage and works closely with his dad and team on chassis setup, gearing, tyre pressures and driver development. He is always looking for the next improvement, whether it is in the kart, the data or his own driving.
Despite living with dyslexia and autism, Jack has turned his focus, pattern recognition and determination into some of his greatest strengths. He has already raced wheel-to-wheel with British, European and World Champions and proved that he belongs at the front.
His goal is simple: keep learning, keep improving and keep moving up the motorsport ladder.
Driver Manager & Engineer
Working alongside Team TWM
Josh is the Dad, engineer, van driver, problem-solver and calm voice behind Jack Baker Racing.
With more than 25 years of hands-on engineering experience across agriculture, marine and specialist vehicles, Josh runs every part of the race operation – from kart prep and setup to logistics, trackside repairs and data-led improvements.
He originally trained with Massey Ferguson as a maintenance technician, gaining City & Guilds qualifications in hydraulics, pneumatics, electronics, mechanical systems and general maintenance. That led to roles as a flotilla engineer, skipper and test engineer and production in the marine industry, before moving into aftersales for Pearl Motor Yachts.
In 2006, Josh founded All Craft Engineering Ltd, followed by Ace Marine Services, building a reputation for high-quality servicing, fabrication and problem-solving on everything from 4x4s and horseboxes to boats and specialist machinery. Today, all of that experience is focused on one thing: giving Jack the best possible equipment and support on a very tight budget.
