Bakkumakaotoreshinguchimu (Back-Marker Auto Racing Team), commonly shortened to BORC, is an Anglo-Japanese racing team, founded by hotel magnate Satoru Maka and motorsport engineer Richard Back, with their names (translated in Back's case) forming the rather ironic title of the team.

Series

BORC, to establish itself in the racing world, has entered the 2019 AutoReject Nippon (formerly SANDWICH) series running Roberto Dinella and Takuma Nakamura in Honda-powered Dallara chassis as 'BORC Shimano Lampre'. At the same time, BORC also entered the fledging Pacific Endurance Series with two Honda NSX-Rs, with the aim of becoming one of the front-running GT teams in this newly-formed championship

It also has an entry in the 2019 Anglo-Irish F4 series through its Brands Hatch-based subsisdary BORC Development UK, running Maka's son Toshio along with young Irish driver Siobhán de Bhailéara. This soon proved fruitful for the team, with de Bhaileara consistently scoring points and Maka managing the team's debut win, though this would be the only time he would score in 2019.
