Café 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”

Today Café 9 Racing is a specialist department, offering preparation and support to Porsche and GT Challenge cars. We are proud to offer expert advice and professional race car preparation.
