Alan Rodney Gurr (born 3 February 1982) is an Australian retired V8 Supercars driver. Gurr was a young karting star both on a national and international level who graduated through the Junior ranks to V8 Supercars with immediate results winning on debut in the V8 Development series. He was the teammate of Jason Bright at Britek Motorsport in 2007. He has also driven for Team Sirromet Wines in the 2006 V8 Supercar Championship Series as well as Holden Young Lions in 2004.
In the 2007 Endurance Races, Gurr was partnered with Warren Luff in car 26. After the 2007 season, he retired with recurring injuries from a serious accident earlier in his career. He was replaced by Marcus Marshall in the #26 Irwin backed Ford, and he has since not raced in the series.
Gurr has since competed in the Sportsman Endurance Karting series in both Queensland and New South Wales, with the CNH Racing Team, alongside Craig Nissen, and Aussie Racing Cars driver Hayden Nissen, winning the SEK National Titles twice in a row in 2024 in Port Macquarie and 2025 in Warwick.
