Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 RSR #14 1973 Iroc Riverside Emerson Fittipaldi in 1:18 scale
This is the Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 RSR #14 1973 Irov Riverside Emerson Fittipaldi in 1:18 scale by WERK83
The Porsche 911 Carrera 3.0 RSR #14 driven by Emerson Fittipaldi at Riverside in October 1973 was not just a spectacular showcase of driving skill—it was part of the inaugural International Race of Champions (IROC), a groundbreaking series that pitted champions from Formula 1, NASCAR, IndyCar, Can-Am, and more in identically prepared Porsche 911 RSRs. Fittipaldi, a two-time Formula 1 World Champion respected for his precision and bravery, grabbed pole in the Sahara‑beige #14 but was penalized for missing the drivers’ meeting, relegating him to the back of the grid. Undeterred, he climbed through the field before a spin and fuel-line failure ended his charge—demonstrating both his talent and the relentless competitiveness of the multi-discipline grid. What sets this race apart from others of that era is its one-make, champions-only format on road courses, brought to television for the first time in motorsports—laying the foundation for future spec-series aimed at determining “the best driver, not the best car".
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
