Meet Our Owner

  • John Bacon

    Owner

    John Bacon has over 35 years experience as a full-time automotive technician, with numerous accolades and honors. Presented with the opportunity to learn about Porsches early in his career, John has developed a passion for the brand with the knowledge to back it up. In 1979, Decatur Automotive Center was born, and with that shop, many good memories tempered with many long difficult weekends and races. In particular, John twice supported race cars at Le Mans, the world'ss oldest sports car race in endurance racing. The Le Mans race is as unique as the Kentucky Derby or the Indy 500 - running on a closed public road circuit not only to test a car and driver's ability to be quick, but also to last over a 24 hour period. In 1976, John supported Toad Hall/Michael Keyser racing a Chev Monza, and in 1984 with Buick March Turbo.

    As a part of Pegasus Racing, a team based out of Atlanta by businessman Ken Madren, John ran in the IMSA series from 1982-1986 with a changing cast of characters as drivers. In the early 2000s, John worked with G&W Motorsports (which later became Synergy Racing), then moving on to work with Tafel Racing from 2005-2007. In both of these teams, John focused on Porsche 911 GT3 variants in GT Classes.

    "Racing teaches quick thinking and problem solving," John says. "Learning what works and what may be text book can be very different." This approach carries over to the way Decatur Garage operates, so that customers can feel total confidence in our judgment both technically and financially, while also offering a low key but sharp presence, and delivering on our reputation.
