Has anyone found a car to use in the Alpine Manufacture race? The only two cars allowed, the Alpine A310 ‘73 and Alpine A110 ’73, can not be purchased and from what I can tell never show up in the used car lot or as a prize car. I’m 91% complete and this is the last manufacture race I have to do.

Yes, exactly, you win the A310 there. Then you can enter the Alpine race, and you will win the A110 as a prize car.

Good luck
 
pretty difficult race, the Alpine race with the A310.
It slips away in the back if you turn a bit to hard. I had to tune it to 170bhp to win these races. Or else I couldn't keep up with the other A110. But nice races.

I'm glad you said that. I throught it was my lack of talent that let the A110's disappear into the distance everytime I raced this series. I did tune my A310 a bit, but not to that level. Looks like I'll have to dig deeper into my bank to beat these guys.
 
check the prize list for the keywords "Alpine" because it is there
im not at 92 % .. i switched from Japanese to european version!! back the the beggining!
but i did win the alpine race, you get the car and .. the normal europa looking one and win the other car, forgot the names.. but i know what they look like... search the prize list for the car, win the tournment and maybe tweak the car or make it a challange using the stock car! and win... its not that much :)

Same here. The rear tyres wore out pretty fast, if you pressed the gas a little too hard after corners.
 
If anyone has tuned the car (esp. the A310) to account for the oversteer problem, I'd love to know what you did. Mine just has to look at the start of the first GVS turn, before the hairpin, and it's into the guardrail. I tried lowering and softening the rear suspension, but it wasn't nearly enough.

Just break a bit earlier and you won't hit the guardrail. I didn't change much to the car itself, just bought some upgrades until 170Bhp and just raced the race, and set my gearings to about 8-10. Nothing changed for the rest with me... And I won every race with 10 seconds and more..
 
I gave up on tuning and B-Spec'd it.

My B-Spec driver was opposite-lock driving like a WRC driver. Better than I could! Fun to watch.
 
Although it looks a bit stupid, fitting a wing will help cure the A310's wayward tendencies. I surprised myself by enjoying the need to constantly control its desire to spin out, so much so that I also used it on the French Grand Prix championship (tuned to just over 200bhp).

Shame that there aren't really any decent races for the 1970's European classics.

The Jag E-type is one of the few decent european classics....
 
Triumph spitfire and the jensen-healey interceptor are also great classic 70's euro classics. Man, they DEFINITELY need a race with all of these in it. They're not allowed into 1000 miles! It'd be sweet if we could make our own championships.

Actually, because it is the rear that wants to come around on you it would be better to make the rear stiffer. I found a setup that I used on mine as follows:

SR 7.0/10.0
RH 109/109
Bound 4/6
Reboune 5/7
Camber 2.4/1.0
Toe 0/2
Stabs 3/4

Tranny final at 3.2
Auto back and forthe and then set at 12

Mine is currently tuned to 222 hp and running R3/R3 tires cause I liked that setup well enough to take it other places and needed the extra to win those

Point being I read in another thread that on RR and/or MR cars where the butt wants to come around on you, you will have much better luck tuning the rear "stiffer" not lighter. I bet if you try this, you'll will agree they are probably right. You still need to manage the car a little but it is day and night from what it starts out its life as a race car (which is a :lol: )

Good Luck!

I put some ballast all the way to the front. Think I used about 10 as weight. Solves the problem with the backend comming out.
