The Montserrat flag was flown high by supporters at the Legendary Drags race in Antigua on Sunday, as Lionel Baker finished top of his class.
Baker was driving Carnage, a Honda B18 Turbocharged in the 9-second class, beating the famous Helter Skelter.
In a social media post by the Montserrat Tourism Authority, Baker said it was a good feeling to win. He thanked everyone who helped him as well as supporters who came from Montserrat to witness the race.
The event took place on Saturday November 22nd and Sunday November 23rd, at the Northsound International Raceway.
Five vehicles were registered from Montserrat to take part in the competition.
They were: Carnage driven by Lionel Baker; Mushigashi driven by Dilleon “Moto” Piper; Hard Wuk driven by Steven “Skep” Elwin; Reaper driven by Dennal “Fowl” Bramble, and a 2004 Honda Integra KSeries driven by Stefon “Buff” Buffonge.
The other participants were knocked out, didn’t qualify, or unable to compete in their classes.
