NASHVILLE, Tenn., (November 2, 2010) – Baker Curb Racing and the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund are partnering to raise awareness for the law enforcement community and those who have died in the line of duty with a special paint scheme on Alex Kennedy’s No. 27 Ford Fusion for the O’Reilly Auto Parts Challenge at Texas Motor Speedway this Saturday. The Memorial Fund logo will adorn both the hood and lower quarter panels of the team’s No. 27 Ford Fusion and the organization’s URL, LawMemorial.org, will appear on the upper quarter panels, decklid and television panel.

“I had the privilege of attending the groundbreaking gala for the National Law Enforcement Museum a few weeks ago and we are honored to be running this special paint scheme to help create awareness for such a wonderful organization,” said Baker Curb Racing owner Gary Baker. “By supporting the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund not only do you help honor law enforcement officers whose lives were taken in the line of duty, you help promote officer safety and the fight to keep officer fatalities on the decline.”
