Dallara: The Expert Racecar Builders Who Have Their Hands In Almost Every Motorsport

[@spdcrzy]

Absolute GOATs. The level of access you've been able to get in Italy from all these engineering firms is INSANE. Ferrari could learn a thing or two. LOL.

[@neukin]

prob one of their clients.. shhh lol

[@leo13.]

Lol, it's because of his Italian friend from Japan Dino..

[@RyTrapp0]

TBF, a lot of places like this would love to give a tour, just no one ever thinks to actually ask. In Dallara's case, they have everything sectioned off extremely well, so it isn't exactly a big deal to give a tour there since there's just a lot of doors that just won't get opened lol. Most of these places are run by passionate people(because you don't get into motorsports to make money), so a lot low key love to show off these places and the work they do because it flies under the radar for all but the most hardcore of fans. But obviously it's going to depending on the specific business of course, different circumstances and such.

[@martin-1764]

What are you talking about.. you can fly to Maranello and have a tour at Ferrari whenever you want, I've done that with my high school. Obviously you won't be able to see everything (just like in this video)

[@spdcrzy]

@@martin-1764 LOL but good luck trying to touch, let alone sit inside ANY Ferrari at Maranello. Dallara is letting people poke around LITERAL ONE OF ONE historical racecars. Ferrari would shit themselves just thinking about people doing that at their precious headquarters.

Lucky you had access to Dallara HQ. Is there's a video in Italy?

[@DubuTrash]

Oh man what an awesome opportunity. Dallara is such an iconic name in motorsports and to get this level of access inside is incredible! Thank you for this cool video I can't wait for part two !

[@Elmo6855]

This series thru Italy has been amazing so far. I mean we know Italy has done some incredible things in the car industry, but seeing all of this, you could just go for hours and keep peeling back layer after layer and it'll never disappoint.

[@fteoOpty64]

This is pure gold Larry!. Inside look of such a company from the legendary Mr Dallara. Amazing tech and their very colour history that few knew to date. Now you made this info global!. The godfather of the Muira has such a wonderful and technological sophisticated legacy most would envy. What a man!.

[@JK061996]

18:11 RIP Marcello Gandini, the designer of the Miura and many other iconic cars died today

[@johannespaul5028]

😢😢 Rip

[@gerryjamesedwards1227]

RIP Maestro Gandini!

[@hathaway.1166]

first Akira and now this, 2024's ain't lookin good

[@neukin]

Oh yea.. technical inside a business tour... the juicy stuff. Love it. Thanks

[@mikepod637]

Dude this entire video was brilliant

[@amaccama3267]

As a home schooled race car builder and driver I found this absolutely fascinating. Thank you for making it and a special thank you to Dallara for allowing us to see inside. 😊

[@nobass_stub1394]

People in general call us idiots and rev heads ... We call ourselves the Custodians of Car Culture, and Dallara are one of the ABSOLUTE Legends of it! Thanks again to LC & the Gang (you too Dino :) )

[@BlakeCWong]

Larry is doing the lord's work

[@samuelgarrod8327]

What? He's killing innocents and giving people AIDS?

[@robertsothmann8110]

Fabulous video Larry. The level of engineering and the capability at the Dallara facility is truly incredible.

[@legoferrari14]

0:22 I recognize that screen on the left! They've got Assetto Corsa with Content Manager!

[@andreadebona3859]

I am so proud to be Italian and to be Larry’s follower 😅

[@VarioFelce]

uguale ahahah

[@Just_Modify]

Your posters are perfect birthday and holiday presents, I’ll be ordering a couple here real soon.

[@mitchell-wallisforce7859]

Fascinating tour. Inspired me to take a closer look at the SP1000, which is such a gorgeous little car. I've always had a thing for prototypes, and that adorable little Group 6 car won me over _immediately._ So sleek, too - looks like a fricken Bonneville special. There's a fine line between respecting Dallara for building objectively badass cars and resenting the fact that they're the only game in town in half the series they build cars for. Wish they had more competition in the single-seater arenas especially, but good to see 'em thriving.

[@VladTepesVEVO]

These guys have _decades and decades_ of proven motorsports experience, this walkaround inside their shop is absolutely fantastic! That concept car is mind-blowing! True, they've cornered the motorsports "market" with their chassis designs and racing car manufacturing, but _man_ do these people know how to build a racecar.

[@arthurcurry3473]

Larry, This. Is. Incredible. Thank you for sharing this experience

[@allanp5086]

Really enjoyed this one Larry! More like this please.

[@NEWNATURE777]

Awsome 😊, thank for sharing such a useful tech information, keep up the good work👍

[@kingmaybus8409]

Way off topic, but the 1st time i saw the Laser 3D printer they showed was in a movie Small Soldiers 😮😅😂😂😂🎉

[@suk675]

Dallara is a legend

[@308media74]

Thanks Larry , that place is sick. Pt2

[@dekabwerks]

Thanks for the inside look

[@Mtlmshr]

WHOOOOOOOO!

[@JK061996]

21:38 I believe that's a replica of Sophia Flörsch's F3 car in which she had that freak accident at the 2018 Macau GP

[@kingmaybus8409]

This was epic 😎 👏 🎉 next cosworth perfect fallow up

[@KurtCityzens]

Let’s go Thank you for video bro🔥🤘🏿

[@David_Conant]

Excellent video

[@glenoh88]

Damn! Well done!

[@scottmaz4063]

Amazing just Amazing

[@markbowden7238]

Please can you do a documentary specifically about the Dallara Icsunonove? It's the car that's got "Dallara Bertone" written across the front in big letters - THAT CAR. It's not called a Stradale as in 037 Stradale (the street legal version of the 037 Rally), but you can see it's really a stradale type car. It's got a wing, a longer wheelbase, a wide body, harnesses, and functional fixed position rectangular headlights, quick fuel fillers etc It's a prototype street legal version of the successful Group 5 X1/9 Dallara. Next to it is the (also successful) Lancia Beta Montecarlo Group 5. As in the (later) Uno Turbo, these cars all use the small block Lampredi, whereas the Beta 037, Delta HF, Beta Montecarlo Spyder, Beta Volumex, Ritmo Abarth 130TC, 131 Abarth Rally, 131 Mirafiori Sport, all use the big block Lampredi. (I assume there are 2 different blocks I don't actually know but the SOHC 8V was factory stroked to 1500 (X1/9), then 1600 (Stilo), and has a theoretical maximum capacity of 1800 whereas the DOHC 8V is over 2000). X1/9, Uno Turbo, Punto GT, Ritmo 105/125/130TC Abarth etc all use identical OEM gearbox overhaul kits. Digression yes but the Kimera, the 037, the Montecarlo, the Delta S4, all have longitudinally mounted engines. The Beta and Delta otherwise had transversely mounted engines (Volumex, Integrale), even if they were mid engined (Montecarlo Spyder, X1/9). The only car in the group that never got the longitudinal installation was the XI/9. Pretty sure the Triflux engine from the Delta ECV, or the developed version from the Kimera, or the engines from any of the 037's, are more or less designed for the Fiat X1/9 😊 Therefore could be used in a remake of the Dallara Icsunonove featuring the same longitudinal installation👍 If Fiat had decided to develop the X1/9 not the Beta for the WRC, logically it would have been called the X1/9 Rally and have been designed and built like the 037 Rally. The ultimate X1/9 therefore would be supercharged, with an Abarth or possibly Dallara or Alfa Romeo 16V head, mechanical or electronic injection, ZF or Colotti transmission, front and rear spaceframes, longitudinally mounted engine. Or the ultimate X1/9 could be called the Icsunonove Rally (either the car just described, or an even more developed version of it based on the Delta S4 to include the Torsen AWD transmission and turbo-supercharging. Haha all I need to do is hope everyone else continues to think I'm crazy and this is a terrible idea. Maybe is a terrible idea, or it would be if it turned out to be slower than Gianluca Ticci's modified X1/9 Dallara or Manuel Dondi's modified Dallara. Both of which are transverse engined with inline transaxles like any other front drive hatchback😂 Like Ritmo, Delta, Prisma, Uno, Punto, Stilo, 155 et al - they all go back to the humble 128 and 128 Sport 😂 Was it actually Marcello Gandini who thought to flip the head thru 180° and use it in a mid engine car or was it Gianpaolo Dallara? Or was it Aurelio Lampredi's idea to design an engine with an inline transaxle that could be used front engine front drive or mid engine, rear drive applications🥴🤔 I have no idea but you can clearly see Manuel Dondi's X1/9 has an Alfa Romeo cylinder head (Alfa Corse) flipped through 180° so the induction is to the front, just like in the Icsunonove. Even if it's naturally aspirated it's still an insanely quick, 285bhp/ 650kg silhouette racer with the Hewland (or X-Trac) 6-speed sequential. In other words the engine and transmission from a works Alfa 155D2 Superturismo, a successful touring car preceding the 156V6 DTM. You should try to interview him.

[@samuelgarrod8327]

What would be the point? You know it all and nobody else is particularly that interested.

[@HyperspeedMedia]

man it keeps getting better and better...

[@AngelLopez-hc2df]

❤ Toyota GR Corolla ❤️ We need more garages like garage 56.

[@nololol]

Larry good move covering other aspects of motorsport! As an American that doesn't like drifting/nascar (yes drifting is japanese but its big 900hp american bs now) I enjoy the autistic details of open wheel/gt/lmp racing. You're really getting into you bag these last few years

[@Just_Modify]

Holy $&!+ dude…. I have an s4 just like that Audi in the beginning of the video, that wide body kit is insane dope.

[@R4M_Tommy]

That's the DTM A4.

[@BurningRubberNz]

😮part 2 coming soon

[@avmelidor]

Illuminating

[@globe6076]

You should visit Brill Steel in Italy

[@StevenP727]

Only came here for that beautiful NASCAR LM Chevy

[@rockytharpjr]

LoL 😂 me too.

[@dakotarodgers9988]

i’m putting a print from you on my birthday list. gonna bef my wife to let me hang it in the living room!

[@makemoreeights]

Oops nope, brilliant 👏

[@woozywoods]

The guy leading the tour kinda looks like comedian Demetri Martin haha

[@ROWSELLTV]

I thought they only built one G56 NASCAR . Mr hendrick posted a photo of it in south carolina 15 days ago, and this ones in italy? guessing they built a few

[@lin3bass]

Wow

[@Bziiit.]

1:16 tell you are Italian without telling you are italian

[@DJ_NOOB]

wow.

[@alexander1485]

Hes obviously doesnt go to places on his own unless its local (pay supplement maybe)

[@rapzeh4]

Get a girl that looks at you like this @12:06 😂

[@crazyforeigner]

🚗 🚘

[@bnrgtr32radgtr42]

Soo whom does the engine and transmission r and d and development racing engines besides judddd???

[@alexander1485]

That "trans-am" is actually a *can-am*

[@spaniardsrmoors6817]

Dino Dude you need to start reading up on Italian history not only this car will make you prouder...the #1 in history, achievements, inventions such as Universities, Banks, Capitalism, modern cement, if not for Italians, no America, western civilization and today a top 10 economy, military, trading nation, wealthiest citizens in the world, #2 industrial power in the EU and much much more.

[@donsummers5678]

more cars, and less people faces.

[@globe6076]

Where is Veyron, Zonda

[@aetfggdgdfgret]

That car of Gilles Villeneuve is not a Trans-Am car but Can-Am car. Big difference! At least he could learn what he was talking about.

[@zXPeterz14]

Its a small mistake while talking off script, guess you are perfect though right?

[@michalpeters4979]

Imagine the stress this man is under every day..the minute bullshit he has to deal with..is money and funding in place are employees paid blah blah blah .I could go on n on..

[@hectorherbert6585]

Third year in a row that Mercedes-Benz F1 team has failed to deliver & build a performing race car despite their huge structures & knowledge and armies of engineers..it might be the time now for them to ask for some help.....

[@samuelgarrod8327]

😂 Why would Mercedes give their capped budget away to another company? Think about what you said. 😂

[@scottyskydog]

There NASCAR new gen cars suck!!
