Art Arrondondo is a graduate of the Universal Technical Institute in Phoenix, Arizona and has been working with Porsches since he was 19. For the last 6 years he has worked with Tony Callas at Callas Rennsport in Torrance (a suburb of Los Angeles), California. With the advent of the Reiser Callas Rennsport team, it was natural that Art, as Tony's right hand, would become part of the enterprise. Art is primarily responsible for the lead car, #02, but his remarkable facility with Porsches means he's often pressed into service on #03 as well as the team's ex-Rohr GT1 car. He is married with an 8-year old daughter.

Ray Canales may single-handedly justify NAFTA. He left Mexico ten years ago and since then his hard work and mechanical ability has distinguished him in the Porsche repair business in Southern California. As you may guess, there are plenty of Porsches in that area to repair, so this is no small feat. Tony Callas' nose for talent found and hired Ray about five years ago to work full time at Callas Rennsport. He is Chief Mechanic for Reiser Callas’ car #03 (the red one) but also works on the other two, including the Porsche GT1
