Owner's Story: Road-going Porsche 964 Supercup

It’s been 30 years since the introduction of the Porsche Supercup - a legendary one-make series which supports Formula 1.
Mark Sumpter has been fascinated by the series since its inception. He tells the story of how this ex-Roock Racing 964 inspired his first 911 club racer livery back in the nineties.

My father and my uncle used to own and race your car in the late 90s in New Zealand. Please reach out if you’d like some stories. BTW. The livery was pretty sad until they put it back to the Roock you have now!

So interesting to hear from a previous owner - I will pass this on.

I owned and raced one of these for about ten years. Ex-Maylander ‘92 Carrera Cup “Kattus”. Wonderful racing car. But driving it on the street would not have entered my mind. 😅

We used to race a 930 Turbo and a 944 Turbo in the late 80s. Then the 964 in Group A races and also a 968 Clubsport. But this was not a spec race like the Carrera Cup 964 you had all Porsches. So older 80s G 3.2s, 928GTs too. The 944/968 were better balanced and easier on tires, the lap times were better overall. I know there is alot of Luftkagult romance about these, but these were a race car, one competitor ran engine oil in the gearbox to qualify on Saturday lunching the gearbox as he had bought a new one from a crashed Cup car to swap that evening and there were alot of bent ones. I am glad you got a keeper

I think we need a video of the super cup just driving back roads with no music no talking . Just raw sound and cool angles. For at least like 20min.

My dad had a track prepped 993 (later got into into 996 and 997 gt3 cup cars)… but my favorite was his racing buddy that had a 964 cup car in that same purple color… that was always in my top 3 of the cars at the PCA races…

It’s to bad he sold that thing years ago as he also got into gt3 cup cars… today he has a handful of Porsche (he’s the original owner of most of his street Porsches) and his highlight in his collection is the latest GT2 RS with the Weisache package (ya I think I spelled Weissache wrong lol)…

Fantastic video. I feel like I've watched a film with a whole story but only 5 minutes has passed... I need to take a leaf out of this book, my videos are too long 🤣
