Cafe 9 Racing
The history of Café 9 started at grass root levels in 1999. The company became very successful in both Porsche Club time trials and later in racing – winning several championships and class wins. Many drivers and customers won as part of our ‘factory’ team but we also had privateers winning in cars built by Café 9 Racing.
“The company has become very successful in both Porsche Club trials and later in racing”
