Porsche 911 GT3 RS 1st Daytona 2003
The Racers Group arrived at Daytona in 2003 having won the GT class there the year before (as well as at Le Mans in a successful season) and though it was suggested that a GT car might be in contention for the outright win, the margin of final victory was impressive, nine laps ahead of the second placed Ferrari and sixteen from the fastest prototype in fourth. Our eye is immediately drawn to the wheels and the very (overly) shiny rims surrounding finely moulded centres. The rest of the detailing is subtler with machined exhaust tips, delicate wing parts, wiper and aerials. The paintwork is excellent and the clearly printed decals are all carefully positioned.

About Spark
The range which changed the 1:43 model market and for which we coined the term 'resincast'. Resin rather than traditional diecast bodies mean that relatively short production runs can be made and what might be marginal subjects become viable. Quality is very consistent with plenty of fine etch used where necessary. A huge range is the result, covering all aspects of (mostly postwar) motorsport and a wide variety of road cars. We typically see around 30 new subjects released per month and pre-orders are strongly recommended. Made in China & Madagascar.
