The 1:43-scale Porsche 911 Carrera 2 (1991 Spa 24 Hours, #24) by Spark is now available for pre-order. Pre-order period closes Monday, November 9, 2026. Manufacturer's estimated release date: March 2027.

The Spark Models 1:43-scale Porsche 911 Carrera 2 (#24), entered by Phillipe de Craene in the 1991 Spa 24 Hours, celebrates the privateer teams and lesser-known competitors that helped shape European endurance racing. Based on the Porsche 964-generation 911, this white competition car represents an era when independent entrants took Porsche's celebrated rear-engined sports cars into some of the continent's most demanding long-distance races. Although the #24 entry did not finish the 1991 event, its place in the history of the Spa 24 Hours makes it an appealing subject for collectors who appreciate Porsche motorsport beyond the familiar factory-backed cars and podium finishers.

Crafted in resin by Spark Models, this finely detailed 1:43-scale Porsche 964 Carrera 2 race car model reproduces the appearance of the #24 Phillipe de Craene entry, with period competition graphics, distinctive 964 bodywork, Cup-style wheels and a prominent rear spoiler. Its carefully rendered exterior captures the character of early-1990s GT and touring car endurance racing, when privateer teams competed against mechanical attrition, unpredictable weather and the relentless demands of a 24-hour race. For collectors seeking a historically specific Porsche 911 racing miniature, this limited-production replica offers an opportunity to add a less commonly represented Spa competitor to a carefully curated collection.

Produced in a limited edition of just 300 pieces worldwide, this Spark resin model is designed for serious collectors of Porsche race cars, 1:43-scale miniatures and historic endurance-racing subjects. It arrives in an acrylic display case, ready to showcase alongside other Porsche 911 competition models.

Pre-orders ship from our California facility within 1–2 business days from arrival from the manufacturer, and every purchase is protected by our 30-day return policy.

Historical Background: The Porsche 964 at Spa

The Spa 24 Hours, held at Belgium's challenging Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, has long tested the durability of production-based sports cars and touring cars, rewarding not only outright speed but also preparation, consistency and mechanical resilience. By 1991, the Porsche 911 had established itself as a natural choice for independent competitors, thanks to its distinctive rear-engined layout, competitive performance and extensive motorsport heritage. The 964-generation Carrera 2 brought updated styling and engineering to the familiar 911 formula, making it a compelling platform for privateer competition. The #24 Porsche entered by Phillipe de Craene, shared with Huysman and Raes, was one of the many independent efforts that gave the Spa 24 Hours its depth and character. Although the car ultimately failed to finish, its story reflects an important part of endurance-racing history: the determination of privateer entrants whose ambitions extended beyond the spotlight enjoyed by factory teams and race winners. Spark Models' 1:43-scale resin replica preserves this lesser-known Porsche competition entry for collectors who value the people, cars and individual efforts that make motorsport history more than a list of results.
