Zell am See, a beautiful town on Lake Zell, is associated with the Porsche family and the history of the company like no other. Zell am See brings an additional sparkle to the eyes of enthusiasts when the term “GP ICE RACE” (today also “F.A.T. ICE RACE”) is mentioned. Here, too, Porsche has a formative role to play.
The classic ice race, formerly held on the frozen Lake Zell, was revived in 2019 after a 45-year break, now with an oval ice track on the old Zell airfield. Just one year later, 150 exclusive racing cars with prominent drivers were at the start in perfect winter conditions.
Among them was the Porsche 964 Carrera RS by Porsche designer Stephen Murkett.
This RS not only fascinates with its special foil design (in FLB design, Friends of Air-Cooled Boxer Engines), but also with its particularly eventful history, which begins with the fact that Mrs. Ursula Piech, the wife of the sadly deceased Ferdinand Piech, was the first owner of this RS. The car then returned to Porsche, was used as a company car and found its way to several enthusiasts in England, where Stephen Murkett was able to purchase it in 2012.
He continues to drive his RS in the ICE RACE design to special events and occasionally as a daily.
He told the story in several short episodes, soon to be seen on our Instagram (@cartima-modelcars).
car.tima can now proudly offer the authentic model in 1:18 scale in high-quality resin including a display case in a limited small series. The model has all the individual features of the original: for example, white indicators, the cupped steering wheel and the Guards red roll bar.
