Do you have the correct Power/Torque Data of the 1972 A364? Normally thé a364 have around 145 bhp/170 nm
https://www.f3history.co.uk/manufacturers/alpine/ It is possible that the engine used at that time was that of the Renault 12 Gordini? http://tech-racingcars.wikidot.com/renault-12-gordini-r1173 with MK8 gear box
That is the Problem, too much "guessing". I've seen Alpine A364 Formula 3 - 1972-1973 1.600 cc 4 Cylinder 130 bhp Vmax : 240 km/h for Example, but it was on Flickr, so.... I haven't found trustable Data yet.
Simucube 1 user here. FFB is a bit weak on my side. Running normally 60% with GT3 and 100% with cars with lower steering force. With A364 i use 180% for a good but not very strong force
So there probably will not be just 1 Value that fits for all. But some Upgrade Options, for different Devices, should do the Job, for Example.
Could you try out, which NominalMaxSteeringTorque Value in the HDV you would need, to use the 60% in your Rig? Better asked, can you gain a good FFB Feeling with 60% in your Rig and any Value lower than 8 for the NominalMaxSteeringTorque at all?
And if you use 8 and the highest % Setting in your Rig, how does that feel? No, i know. But e.g. 130 bhp are 131,8 hp/PS, so it's not much Difference in that Region.

Hello guys So during this week, I haven't made 3d work, due to my daily work, but I have found time to think to the project . I will explain waht I have in mind. The A364 carbody mesh is not at the actual standard , and need a lot of job to refit ( more or less start from 0 if I wand done a good job ) Accordingly I want let it like this, but for the rest I want redo from scratch. the idea ,it's to make a new Formula Renault 1975 (from zeo) but with parts compatible with the A364 ( common parts between the both) https://www.classic-racing.fr/annonce/bbm-formule-renault-europe/ 1-do a new rolling chassis (frame ) ( let me the opportunity to build different carbody ) 2-do a new suspension (front / rear ) 3-do new tire model ( I have to check the difference between F3 1972 and FR 1975; the rear tire look little bit bigger) 4-do a new cockpit compatible with A 364 ( exemple steering wheel with center logo different ) 5-same driver position I had the opportunity in the past to test RF2 with pilots from that era. in all that we tested and they have a similar feeling to UsF 2000. May be an orientation for the behavior of the car. it's more easy to find data and reference for FR 75 than the A364. http://www.archivesportauto.fr/fiche_course_anglais.php?course_id=2087 ( Regulation rules ) I wait your feedback about this idea
Let's go for the first round (easy one ) Front tire : 175/60 R 13 Section Width = 216 Overall diameter = 532 Rear tire : 23/57 R 13 Section Width = 280 Overall diameter = 575 Rim Gotti 13" PS: tirewall texture, it's the old T280 ; I need to find my psd to do Michelin one that's all for the week end
About the A364, took if for some laps at Haute Santonge, and I kept loosing rear end. Couldnt find a way to setup my way out of the problem. Then I wondered if I could adjust the rear wing in the physics file, but it was not mentioned in it. Shouldnt it be there? Well I tried to add it from the skipbarber and it worked fine and help a little with the rear. Dont know if its the correct way. I also changed the graphical offset, to give it a lower visual appearance. attached the hdv file here (remove the .txt from it)
