If u actually went into the rules and regulations in drag racing a por street car is way different than a promods last time I checked that's an actual body on that car

@banditfishing1558 Ай бұрын

The Capri runs in a class called street eliminator. Where they have to run any form of fuel we get at a uk fuel station, run a regulated tyre, no wheelie bars, and have to be fully street legal. Part of qualifying for the class is a street drive each event. Before the new regulation tyre came in we had 2 cars in the 6s range and multiple capable of it. However they now run a smaller tyre

I'm hope that 614 HP was a typeo, because that Cortina was moving....😅

The Capri doesn't even hook until it's halfway down the strip and still wins. lol

It's insane. I mean, the Cortina is running a 9.2, at 156mph. It's fast as fuck. And it's still not even close.

@@jdgarrison9913 He's running a very low gear in the rear end, This is why the car wheelies so hard and has such a good rollout and first half, perhaps a 4th gear and some NOS would help ;).

The Cortina is a weapon.. My very first car in 1989 was a 1980 Cortina 2L… I bloody loved that car, 2L pinto, janspeed 4 branch exhaust, cheap pancake air filter, XR4i alloys, and all sprayed in grey primer with blacked out lights.. I even remember the reg plate, NLF 713V You just have to imagine it, honestly…in 1990 it looked the nuts 😂😂

If the rear shocks don't have enough travel in them, then yes. Otherwise, you unbolt the shocks. Went through this myself back in the early 00's, 74' Vega that hade 33x15 slicks on it. There might be more sophisticated solutions now, but that's how I delt with it.
