A fascinating aspect of the VLN is the great variety of cars, which can´t be found at any other racing series in the world. To show this wide range in just one preview is impossible - you can discover it in using this mod after it's released. But the actual progress gives us the possibility to show you an interesting comparison of two very different cars, which will be presented in detail in one of the upcoming previews.
The Alpina B6 GT3 from the Allgäu, a car in the shape of a sumo-wrestler and with one and a half tons of fighting weight, dominates this scene with its monstrous appearance.
725Nm torque and 530 horse powers out of a V8 compressor, combined with a wide wheelbase and a lot of generated downforce, eject this heavy car to impressive driving performances."
Much more decent appears the last Cup-vehicle of the Cologne motorsport division of Ford. The Fiesta ST seems like a flea in comparison - and with hardly one ton live weight it really is one. Pushing the 1,6l four-cylinder in-line engine to the limiter, brings up to 170Hp out of it. This is enough to be just 2 minutes slower per lap, than the top-cars, like an Alpina.
Anyway the shorty could sometimes slip into the diffusor of an Alpina. Especially in tight turns the midget shows his agility, lifting his inner rear wheel in a spectacular way. According to a popular saying: "Who want to take a leak with the big dogs, has to lift his leg".
Matthi (Alpina) and Paule (Fiesta) were responsible for the implementation of these two cars.
