Martin Raffauf’s connection to Porsche doesn’t begin in the usual way. There was no teenage dream of a 911, no family heirloom passed down. Instead, his Porsche story starts at the racetrack, and never really leaves it.
His first race wasn’t even sports cars. In 1967, he watched A.J. Foyt win an IndyCar event at Trenton Speedway. But soon after, Martin joined the Sports Car Club of America while in college and worked as a technical inspector to get closer to the action. That led him to IMSA in the early 1970s, and from there, the road was set.
