The Cunningham family is thrilled to announce their return to the Britcar Championship for the 2025 season. After years of success with their trusted Porsche 997, the team is taking a bold step forward with the Porsche 991 Cup.
While the upgrade promises greater performance potential, it also brings a new set of challenges. The team acknowledges that mastering the intricacies of the 991 Cup will be a learning curve, but they’re ready to put in the hard work and dedication needed to adapt and excel.
“Every car has its quirks and demands, and moving to the 991 Cup is no exception,” said the team. “We’re excited to learn, grow, and push ourselves to new limits as we tackle this next chapter.”
The journey wouldn’t be possible without the steadfast support of their sponsors: Shaws Glass Ltd, John Fredericks Plastics Ltd, and Addspeed Performance Cars. Their backing ensures the team has everything needed to face this new challenge head-on.
“Mark and his father Peter have been competing in Britcar for nearly as long as the Championship has existed!” commented Britcar MD Claire Hedley. “Their family-run team are one of the most popular in the paddock, truly embodying the spirit of Britcar with good humour and a can-do attitude to go racing and above all, the desire to have fun doing it. They have regularly performed giant killing acts against bigger and better funded teams and they’ve often gone toe-to-toe with competitors in classes above theirs. Now competing in the top class it’ll be wonderful to see them mixing with the other Ferrari’s and Porsches at the front of the field challenging for outright victories.”
You can catch Mark and Peter in their distinctive yellow and black 991 at round 1 of the Britcar Endurance Championship at Silverstone on the 5th April or by watching the livestream on the BARC YouTube channel.
