Classic Italian Motorsport Specialists

 

Italian classic car motorsport is a multifaceted and exhilarating field that demands expertise, precision, and a deep passion for Italian automotive heritage. Each of these four sections plays a critical role in bringing these historic machines to life on the track, celebrating their legacy in a high-octane, competitive environment. This is the brilliance of Alficina!

Race and Rally Build

The race and rally build process is where we transform classic Italian cars into formidable racing machines. This involves extensive modifications to enhance performance, safety, and reliability under the rigorous conditions of competitive motorsport. Alficina engineers and technicians work tirelessly, tuning engines for power, reinforcing chassis for better handling, and installing advanced safety equipment. Every modification is a careful balance between preserving the car’s classic character and optimising it for the rigors of the racetrack or rally course.

Car Race Preparation

Classic motorsport preparation is a detailed and crucial phase where the vehicle is meticulously prepared for the specific demands of each event. This involves a comprehensive check of all mechanical systems, including the engine, transmission, brakes, and suspension. Technicians ensure that the car is not only in peak condition but also finely tuned to the nuances of the upcoming race. Fluids are checked and replaced, tyres are checked and maintained, and adjustments are made to suit the specific demands of the upcoming course.

Race Day Support

On race day, support teams play a pivotal role in the success of the vehicle and driver. The Alficina professionals provide on-site race support and assistance, handling last-minute adjustments and repairs, ensuring optimal car performance throughout the event. We monitor car performance in real-time, offering strategic advice to the driver and making crucial decisions on pit stops and adjustments. This support is vital for navigating the unpredictable nature of racing, where every second and every decision can make the difference between victory and defeat.

Transportation and Storage

Transportation and storage are essential elements in the world of Italian classic car motorsport. The safe and secure transport of these valuable vehicles to and from race venues is a logistical undertaking that requires expertise and precision. Specialised transportation ensures that the cars arrive in pristine condition, ready for competition. Post-race, the vehicles are carefully transported back to secure facilities, where they are stored under optimal conditions and if needed, prepped for the next race event or show. This includes elements to protect the cars from environmental factors, ensuring they remain in top condition for future races.
