I’ll add some details & pics on Mark’s lovingly-restored gorgeous 1974 Alpina Grp. 2 race car, seen in the vid and at the exhibit.
•Those are uber-rare 15” Alpina wheels, not the typical 13s. 11x15 F, 13x15 R (!)
•That is a Schnitzer 20-4 head DOHC 4-valve KF-injection M10 motor which predated BMW’s own S14. This variant output 275hp @9000rpm.
•It was the last race 2002 built/run by Alpina and was known to be one of Burkhard’s favorites due to having so much custom tech included on it. Just one of the many unique engineering bits:
“The differential drove the alternator off of a pully on the front part of the diff and also had an Alpina mini pump mounted to it on the side that had a drive off of the axles.”
What an amazing time capsule. Congrats and thanks for sharing it with everyone, Mark!
