What had belonged to the French and Italian teams was now in German hands. Alfa Romeo was desperate to regain their superiority. Scuderia Ferrari was tasked by Alfa Romeo to build their own super car. Long-time Ferrari technical director Luigi Bazzi, did not resort to half measures. Leading this mad adventure, a team of 30 employees, the entire Scuderia, he designed a special chassis based upon a lengthened P3 that carried two 8-cylinder engines that were placed in front and behind the driver with the rear engine facing towards the rear. One version used twin 2.9 litre units while another used twin 3.2 litre units. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/alfa_bimotore3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-533372 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/alfa_bimotore3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"130\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/alfa_bimotore3.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/alfa_bimotore3-100x43.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/alfa_bimotore3-293x127.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>The differential was located in the middle with the power from both engines supplied to the rear wheels through twin driveshafts in a &#8220;Y&#8221; format. The fuels tanks would be placed on each side of the car. On top of this, the complete car was finished in less than four months.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"bodyText\" align=\"left\">The car was intended for the fast tracks on the calendar, such as Tripoli and Avus which were actually Formula Libre events not governed by the rules of the 750kg formula. The original intention was for the car to use Dunlop tires which were considered the best for high-speed use but for some reason Dunlop would not guarantee them for road racing and the switch was made to Engleberts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodyText\" align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore20.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-533374\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore20.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore20.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore20-300x134.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore20-100x45.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore20-293x131.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"bodyText\" align=\"left\">Two Bimotores were entered for the Tripoli Grand Prix which was run under\u00a0<em>formula libre<\/em>\u00a0rules. The cars were driven by Tazio Nuvolari and Louis Chiron. At the drop of the flag the Mercedes of Rudolf Caracciola leapt into the lead followed by his &#8220;teammate&#8221; Luigi Fagioli with Nuvolari hanging on to this leading duo. Nuvolari was able to pass Fagioli only to have to pit on the third lap for new rear tires. The next set of tires were able to last four laps. While the Alfa could maintain the leaders pace on the straights it&#8217;s handling in the corners could not. By race end Nuvolari would claim fourth place followed by Chiron in a race won by Caracciola. One of the cars few &#8220;victories&#8221; came when Tazio Nuvolari on Dunlops set a new world record for the kilometer at 321km\/h on the Florence Autostrada topping 208 mph at one point.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-533375 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"193\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio1.jpg 193w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio1-100x78.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 193px) 100vw, 193px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-533376 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio2.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bio2-100x56.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><\/a>The major reason for its relative lack of success could be traced to its prodigious use of fuel and tyres brought on by its excessive weight and power. More often then not the car was either entering or leaving the pits after receiving some sustenance. Thus the noble attempt that became the Alfa Bimotore could have easily been called the first Ferrari but rather than struggle to make it race worthy the project was soon dropped. With one of the cars scrapped the other was sold to British amateur driver Austin Dobson for national events at Donington and Brooklands.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore2.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-533379\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore2.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore2-300x159.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore2-100x53.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore2-293x155.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore1.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-533381 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"449\" height=\"293\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore1.jpeg 449w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore1-300x196.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore1-100x65.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore1-293x191.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 449px) 100vw, 449px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore3.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-533384\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore3.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"407\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore3.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore3-300x204.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore3-100x68.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore3-293x199.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore4.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-533387\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore4.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore4.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore4-300x198.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore4-100x66.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/bimotore4-293x193.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alfa Romeo Bimotore Car: Alfa Romeo Bimotore \u00a0\/ Engine: Two 8-Cylinder In-line (2 versions) \/ Maker: Alfa Romeo \/ Bore X Stroke: 71 X 100 mm, 68 x 100 mm \/ Year: 1935 \/ Capacity: 6,330 cc, 5,810 cc \/ Class: Grand Prix \/ Power: 540 bhp at 5,400 rpm, 520 bhp at 5,400 rpm \/ Wheelbase: 110.25 in \/ Track: 54.5 in \/ Weight: 2,205 lbs (Dry) \/ Tires: Front tires 5.5 x 20 and 7.00 x 21 rear.
