Paul Rees launches his new 911 GT3 Supercup car at Porsche Centre Mayfair
10/5/2017
On 27 April, Porsche Centre Mayfair was delighted to play host to British racing driver Paul Rees for the launch of his new 2017 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup Car. Sponsored by Kx Systems, the new Porsche GT3 Cup car was unveiled to guests ahead of the 2017 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup season.
The Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup is the fastest international single marque GT racing Championship, contended by professional teams and drivers in technically identical 460 hp ‘Type 991’ 911 GT3 Cup race cars. Success in the championship can be a determining factor for drivers seeking to establish a professional motorsport career.
Rees is now in his second year competing at the Supercup and is looking to follow in the footsteps of FIA World Endurance Championship LMP1 919 Hybrid drivers Nick Tandy and Earl Bamber, who raced their way up the ranks in the Carrera Cup and Supercup.
Greg Hardy-Smith, Centre Principal of Porsche Centre Mayfair said “We had the pleasure of welcoming Paul to our Centre as a contestant for our Question of Motorsport quiz night a couple of years ago, back when he was competing in the Porsche Carrera Cup GB. It is great to see him continuing to progress in his racing career, now challenging for the Porsche Supercup. We were delighted to offer our Centre as a venue for Paul’s celebration and launch of his new 911 GT3 Cup car.”

. From 01 January 2019, all fuel consumption figures are shown as determined in accordance with WLTP. CO₂ figures will be shown as NEDC-equivalent values, as CO₂ based taxation will continue to be based on an NEDC value (derived from WLTP) until 06 April 2020. For Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) range and Equivalent All Electric Range (EAER) figures are determined with the battery fully charged, using a combination of both battery power and fuel.
Values are provided for comparison only. To the extent that fuel and energy consumption or CO₂ values are given as ranges, these do not relate to a single, individual car and do not constitute part of the offer. Optional features and accessories can change relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics which may result in a change in fuel or energy consumption and CO₂ values. Vehicle loading, topography, weather and traffic conditions, as well as individual driving styles, can all affect the actual fuel consumption, energy consumption, electrical range, and CO₂ emissions of a car.
