PORSCHE CARRERA CUP GB
Porsche Carrera Cup GB has been a firm fixture on the TOCA support package since its inaugural season in 2003. Drivers compete in identical Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars with a 4.0-litre 6 cylinder engine with 510hp under the bonnet.
NAPA Racing UK, will continue to field a car in the PCCGB with top team Joe Tandy Racing (JTR).
JTR was established by the eponymous late racing driver and is run by his brother and 24 Hours Le Mans winner, Nick Tandy. Nick has over 80 wins and 3 British FF championships to date and is one of the most successful teams in UK competition in recent years. The No.57 NAPA Racing UK branded Porsche will be piloted by 20-year-old Gus Burton.
GUS BURTON #57
2022 Rookie Porsche Carrera Cup Champion and current Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup driver Gus Burton will embark on the second half of the PCCGB season.
20-year-old Burton made his mark in the motorsport world by competing in the 2020 Ginetta GT4 Supercup Championship. Despite racing against more experienced drivers, Burton was crowned overall Vice-Champion after finishing the season with 5 wins and 16 podiums out of 17 completed races.
The Essex-based racer then went on to have an incredible year in 2021, making history by claiming the British GT4 title in the penultimate round of the season. After taking both the Drivers and Teams championship in the same year, Burton made the impressive jump to the PCCGB Championship and after 2 pole positions, 3 wins and 5 podiums, he took the Rookie Cup.
With his history of success, one thing’s for sure: Gus Burton is one to watch.
