The 992 generation of the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup arrived for the 2021 racing season, and by 2023 it was the machinery of choice across Porsche's one-make pyramid. This 1:43 resin model by Spark Model records one of its definitive moments in Italian competition: the championship-winning season of Larry ten Voorde in the Porsche Carrera Cup Italy.
Unveiled in 2020, the 992-generation Porsche 911 GT3 Cup was developed specifically for single-make competition. Its 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-six produces approximately 510 hp at 8,400 rpm and is paired with a 6-speed sequential gearbox. The car is built around a purpose-designed roll cage with FIA-compliant safety systems — a clean-sheet racing machine on the 992 platform rather than a modified road car.
No. 25: Ten Voorde Clinches Italy
Larry ten Voorde, born 1999, is among the most decorated drivers in Porsche one-make racing. He claimed multiple Porsche Carrera Cup Benelux titles before winning the 2020 Porsche Supercup championship — the top tier of the one-make pyramid. His 2023 campaign in the Porsche Carrera Cup Italy, running car No. 25, added the Italian title to that record. The Carrera Cup Italia is an exclusive single-make sprint series run entirely with the 911 GT3 Cup, sitting within the broader Porsche Motorsport customer racing structure.
Spark Model's Resin Replica at 1:43
Spark Model — the French specialist known for its extensive catalogue of resin racing replicas — produced this model in 1:43. The livery is reproduced via pad-printing, with photo-etched metal parts used for fine details. The model carries race number 25 and replicates the championship-winning livery exactly as run in the 2023 Porsche Carrera Cup Italy. At this scale, Spark's 1:43 range has become the reference for documented single-make racing provenance.
In the Display Cabinet
This model sits naturally alongside other Spark resin releases from Porsche's one-make ladder — Carrera Cup Benelux and Supercup editions featuring ten Voorde's earlier seasons make for a coherent driver-career display. It also pairs well with 1:43 representations of the 911 GT3 Cup 991.2, the outgoing generation, highlighting the visual and technical evolution of the Cup car lineage. Collectors focused on Italian single-make competition will find Carrera Cup Italia releases comparatively scarcer than flagship WEC or Formula 1 Spark issues.
