Parr Motorsport has unveiled plans for a major challenge in the 2011 Porsche Carrera Cup GB. The team, headed by the vastly experienced Paul Robe, intends to run as many as four cars in the championship and wants to challenge for race wins and the title.

The team has an impressive background in sports and GT racing, and in 1996 took second and fourth in class at Le Mans with Porsches for Stephane Ortelli and Greg Murphy. Team boss Robe has 27 years of racing experience, most if it with Porsches, and the team won a number of GT and Porsche championships between 1985 and 2002.

From 2003 to 2009, the team's main focus was providing the parts and technical service for the Porsche Carrera Cup GB and entering the VIP car. But now, the aim is to re-establish Parr Motorsport as a major contender for success in the championship and Robe is keen to talk to drivers about the 2011 season. The team's first driver is already secured.

"I'd like to run up to four cars next year," said Robe. "I want to field a pro driver for a serious shot at the overall drivers' title. As a team, we have a very strong engineering background in Porsches."

In 2010, Parr Motorsport is fielding a single-car Carrera Cup GB campaign for series newcomer Richard Denny in the pro-am2 category.
