Porsche 911 RS

The 1973 Porsche 911 RS comes to life on track and display with this Limited Edition from Fly Car Model

The 1973 Safari Rally was one of the most brutal events in motorsport history. Red dirt tracks, stones, mud, and over 5,000 kilometres across the plains and mountains of Kenya. In that impossible setting, the Porsche 911 RS proved that a production sports car could compete —and stand up— to the most powerful manufacturers of the time. Fly Car Model has chosen precisely that version, the most extreme and evocative, for this limited production piece with reference FLYE2002.

Features and Highlights

• Scale 1:32, the standard for competitive and collectible slot cars.
• Limited Edition from Fly Car Model, with numbering that guarantees the exclusivity of the piece.
• Bodywork with the specific Safari Rally configuration: raised suspension, dirt tyres, and characteristic protections of the era.
• Competition decoration faithful to the real 1973 livery, with documented stickers, numbers, and colours of the car.
• Finishes by Fly Car Model, a brand recognised for its precision in reproducing classic rally bodywork.

Scale and Level of Detail

At 1:32, the Fly 911 RS measures approximately what corresponds to a real car of 4.3 metres in length —slightly less, as the 911 of that time was around 4.1 m—, allowing for appreciation of all the characteristic elements of the Safari preparation: the widened wheel arches, the reinforced bumper, and the knobbly dirt tyres that differentiate this model from any asphalt version. The interior and the front reproduce the details that fans of historic rallying can identify at first glance.

Track Performance

As a slot car, the Fly Car Model Porsche 911 RS is designed for both display and enjoyment on track. Fly Car Model has historically been a reference in the Spanish slot scene for its balance between detail and drivability. The chassis and internal mechanics allow it to run on universal track rails (compatible with Scalextric and Ninco) without modifications. Enthusiasts looking to extract more performance will find room for tuning in tyres and guide, although the piece shines particularly as a collectible item in limited editions like this.

Ideal for…

• Collectors of classic 70s rally and fans of the Porsche 911 in competition.
• Specialised displays for limited edition slot cars and restricted production models.
• Slot enthusiasts seeking a car with a real history behind it, not just a generic replica.
• Gifts for discerning collectors who already have the asphalt versions and want the most unique variant of the 911 RS.

Points to Consider

As it is a Limited Edition, the available units are what they are: once they are sold out, there will be no restock. If you have it in your cart, don’t leave it for tomorrow. On the other hand, as with all rally models with knobbly tyres, grip on smooth asphalt track may be slightly less than that of a car with slick tyres; it is part of the character and authenticity of the piece.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it compatible with my Scalextric tracks?

Yes. Fly Car Model cars come with a standard guide compatible with universal track rails, which includes Scalextric and Ninco. You can run them without needing to change the guide.

Is it only for display or can it also be used on track?

Both. It is manufactured to function on track, but since it is a Limited Edition with collectible value, many enthusiasts prefer to keep it unrun. The decision is yours.

What makes this version of the 911 RS different from other replicas of the same car?

The Safari configuration. Most replicas of the 911 RS represent the asphalt or circuit version. This one reproduces the specific preparation for the 1973 Safari Rally —raised suspension, dirt tyres, protections— making it a distinct and more unique piece within the 911 family in slot.

Does it come in a box with edition number?

Fly Car Model presents its limited editions with individual boxes. To confirm if this specific reference includes visible numbering, we recommend contacting us directly before placing the order.

Are spare parts available?
