Martin Muffler

**Martin Jacob Sebastian Muffler** is a pretty much forgotten great racer in the deadly Piston Cup Open Wheel Series winning all of their 5 championships held from 1990-1994. He won all of the races from 1993-1994.

## Career/Life

Martin was born along with his brother who was his twin Kartin Jack Fred Muffler in a poor but racing fan family. At age 20 Martin joined the IndyCar KART Series in 1984 and won 2 races in 1986 and 1988. He left the series in 1989 to help his family work but joined the Piston Cup Open Wheel Series in 1990 and won the championship in 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, and 1994 even though his brother competed in it as well until he was one of the 20 deaths. After the series was cancelled in 1995, Martin decided to join IndyCar for the Kmart Racing Team and raced until 2005 when Sears bought them. From 2006-2014 he raced for the newly opened Dinoco IndyCar Racing Team in the number 043. In 2015 he retired from IndyCar and went to the Open Wheel Super Speedway Series which is holding its first season in 2015 at 5 super speedway tracks. Martin won the first one at the Calladega Open Wheel 500 but then sadly had a career ending crash at Coca Cola Superspeedway.
