To all the haters: This guy did what any car enthusiast has the right to do: modify his car to his liking. And the result? A super high performance car that clearly matches his driving style! Yes it's a classic, but this car is racing on the road! Much better than sitting in someone's garage for only one person to look at IMO.
He is allowed to do that to that car. But no, you are wrong. You cannot just do what you want to any car. Some cars fall into a category of "you better fucken not". Lol
0:17 This is the best part of this car. It doesn't corner because of massive downforce, it corners because of its insanely wide wheel base and narrow weight distribution. Meaning it can still do (0:17).
My top 3 rally car shapes must be the 1st the Lancia 037(and predecessors), then the Alpine in 2nd and last but not least the 22b in blue. All built by true Genii.
Really? I really hate how widr those flares are. But its in the name of racing so whatever. It drives fucking crazy. But the 11k rpm with only 200hp is surprising
@@kevinnguyen8612 My bike weighs 200kg with me on it, and only had 10hp when it was new, and that's fun. power doesn't help with fun, light weight does. And 600kg is seriously light weight for a car.

I must say, the Alpine looks prettier with its stock wheel width. I always approve of motorcycle engine swaps, they just sound nicer than most cars. Also, that jump at the beginning. 1 year edit: I understand and accept the widening of the wheels. This one's a proper monster, it is or was great for it. No doubting that. Having seen a stock width Alpine driven with speed, I simply prefer the original look.
Sitting in the co-driver's seat, the sensations are much more terrifying than a ride in Dysneyland in space mountain !! lol A road handling still as impressive due to its chassis, the angle of the rear wheels and its rear wheel drive! No wonder this car has won so many races, Renault's greatest success with Alpine!
I noticed this vid of the old blue Alpine and watched it because I never considered it much of a performer. I was blown away. Watched the video several times. Nice to see an Alpine breathing fire. Exhilarating regardless of the details of how. C'est bon.
Maybe my memory is wrong, but AFAIK the historical A110 1300S racing weight was 650kg. Pretty impressive mod job finding both those kg's and enormous power enhancement.
I rode ZX and ZZR Kawasakis for years and I think this is a wonderful job and a real tribute to both car and bike. The slightly husky Kawasaki roar suite the car very well.
Nice skills, beautiful proto built by passionate people, good taste for putting an A110 body on it ^^. The spirit is really there superlight weight, agile and slides

@@comethiburs2326 yes but a beat up beetle and a crashed liter bike are cheap and there are a lot of them. The beetle is good because it has like a 15 circuit harness and plenty of room for a tube chassis, at that point I can just weld in a mustang II front end or make my own and same with the rear, I could use some thing from a wrecked side by side or make my own. All's I need here in America is a body with a VIN and working lights and safety . Then I could drive it every day if I wanted to😎
Luckily, this is not a Kawasaki swapped A110, because it would be a huge shame. On the other hand, if you are doing a space framed chassis purpose built race car, I cant imagine a much more desirable shape than the one of A110, so props to builder/driver in any case!
Shockz No, its purpose built space frame chassis which has nothing to do with the A110, and then covered with fiberglas body molded to look like an a110. From the looks of things, it seems to have an mid mounted engine aswell.
At first I thought it was a highly modified VW Bug with a tricked out Porsche engine. I bet it's a gas to drive. How does it fly? Could it handle those off road rallies where they get airborne so often?
0:17 -0:18- _Jeeeeezus!!!_ 2:15 Suspension setup for that aggressive acceleration-jump-drift-cornering and the handling -- wow! -- evein if the forces involved (KE = 300kg * _V_ ^2) are lightweight as all eff, but still... Javicho Graña has done an amazing thing here with that car!
It never was an Alpine.... Read the title and description. It's a spaceframed chassis with an A110 inspired body (i.e. it's a modern day homage to the A110, not an original chassis)

I've never heard an engine swap like this where the noise matches the car so well.. the tone fits perfectly
It's amazing how this engine was originally used to move a bike and yet can make a car even jump at the road, superbikes are insane
