This is one of the coolest cars I’ve ever seen. Please show more of these and the build process. Incredible guys. lapo is so passionate that he can’t contain himself. Love it!

My man is living the dream. He worked hard on it!

I love the idea of running the alternator off the prop-shaft; clever concepts throughout, borrowed from various forms of motorsport. Lovely.

As an engineer I love this project!! ❤️Would love to get more in deep videos about the development process of the car and design of it. Also maybe a video explaining what kind of telemetry your planning to use. Why did you guys decide to do an titanium exhaust instead of inconel? Just convinience? Keep it going!!

17:42 and that's exactly why this project gonna succeed. Lapo knew how much Micha willing to spend so that Lapo can have 100% focus on designing and producing. best of luck and hope this company will grow to become one of the go-to spot for designing and modifying cars for enthusiasts

Sweet lord that thing is gorgeous... 👀 Absolutely cannot wait to see what you guys do going forward Vulcan Alpha FTW 🖤🖤

We are witnessing something legendary, gives me "beginnings" vibes, Gordon Murray type of passion in engineering and golden days of legendary drivers type of implication in the build.

Awesome work guys. Filippo from Aereus is one of the best person i know, his knowledge and his passion it's really something unique. If you dont know, he's also a veeeeeeeeeery skilled driver, he drove some european drifting competition with his mx5 nbfl turbo and then with his 2jz mazda mx5 NC. They're also Italian Drifting Champion of 2023 with Filippo developing a particular LS Mazda FC3S driven by Luca Fuschini. What a collab :D

I barely understood anything but Lapo's passion is so contagious, I watched the video in its entirety

The McClaren 3.8l v8 is related to the nissan V8 from the 90s LMP cars. It had a second life in the American IRL series with Infinity branding. Its not a nissan engine, it was developed by JWT for racing. McClaren bought the design from JWT then heavily revised it for their needs.

Love the engine-choice 🍀 Also the engineposition and the other racing engineering solutions: very low main emphasis, steering rack above the turbos, double wishbone and the position etc etc Cant wait to see this in action!!

Now, here's me hoping you'll be designing parts for Jimmy's MX5s, so I can then order parts for my own MX5 😂 Also if that's possible, I'd like to know more about the shocks you're using there, who builds them, are they entirely bespoke for your suspension design or did you adapt the arms to work with an already available shock, etc. - of course, if that's not revealing any big secrets.

You guys need to get out and take this to Pikes Peak. Would love to see this in person and performing at such a straining race.

This is sick, I couldn’t pause the video I was so entertained. Can’t wait for the future, the passion you men have is amazing.

Watching Lapo bring Vulcan Alpha to life with such dedication and vision is nothing short of inspirational! 🚀 It’s fascinating to see how his approach, combining both creativity and technical expertise, is setting a new benchmark in the automotive design industry.

beatiful work, even the exhaust insulation is a work of art

lapo goes crazy..... the engineering on this build is really admirable. great job.

You have a gold mine here Misha. The passion that clearly oozes from this project is easy to see. There is a saying that goes: Do what you love and the money will follow. These engineers are clearly doing what they love, and they are living my personal dream to be able to create and develop this project. Keep up the great work, and I sincerely wish you immense luck and success with this endeavor.

Maybe I'm just being a conspiracy theorist, but I'm calling it right now: this car will be in AC2/EVO when it comes out. Misha mentioned in his ACC Nürburgring video that they'd be able to scan cars to put in the game and that it's something he'd be offering as a service (the Vulcan-Alpha website already advertises 3D scanning). This would be an insane way to feature that capability and bring attention to the technology.

Finally a company that I would trust with intake manifold for my M272. Hopefully we could reach out to you guys soon for custom made manifolds ( better working flaps in my case ) for our cars ❤ much love, incredible piece of art

I've only started being interested in cars for only about 4 - 5 years now, it was just a means of transportation for me prior. But now I'm just so deeply interested and it brings me joy to learn about it and work on my own. It's something I Think about constantly. Watching things like this really motivate me to continue, It is just so cool! I hope to be able to work at a legit motorsports shop one day

I really liked hearing the technical details. I look forward to seeing it finished.

That's how you achieve greatness. You work hard on getting the skills and knowledge and then you unleash the passion. Go guys! We're all cheering for you.

Happy to see the vk56 getting more love. one of the most underrated engine ever

Good luck for the future this is an incredible piece of Engineering. Absolutely Beautiful. A testament to the Passion and Knowledge these guys possess. Amazing 💯❤️

Great video Misha and team! Really excited for this project. Also really excited for those PhiMax wheels, they look great and performance to match.

Great to see such enthusiasm being put to such a fine use. Good luck VA.

Great build! Assuming this is being built for Pro Class at WTAC. Going to have to be ridiculously fast to get near the RP968. Look forwards to more updates.

Nice nice. Rigid chassis, custom suspension, engine as far down and back as possible. I like that Lapo even touches a little bit on material science, wheelbearing housing weight vs. strength. 9:53 hm makes me wonder if it clears even with full steering angle inwards and suspension travel (compression and jumps), but I'm sure you've got this thought through 1000%. 20:37 can you take a quick look at the general concept of lightweight intake manifolds? I knew someone who was constructing a carbon fibre intake manifold for the VR6, which could have saved up to 10 kg at an important place (at the very front & top). He abandoned the project due to personal reasons :( But in general I would still be interested in such a thing. Of course this would have to juggle weight saving with rigidity and heat resistance, but I'd be curious to what point the weight saving could be pushed.. Are you also interested in doing a hillclimb with the car? There are many such races in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, ...

Yes the suspension has been checked multiple times and the results are flawless with no interference. This confirms that the cad work is also spot on. For the intake it was decided mostly because of time schedule to make it out of aluminium. But a carbon intake is definitely possible, maybe for the next iteration. 😊
