Modified Fords, Castle Combe - 6th May 2024 - Race 1 - Capri 32V V8

Qualified 9th after flat spotting the front left on my first quick lap giving me a bad vibration. Came 2nd in damp slippery conditions, the race finishing behind the safety car.
Trying different locations for the camera mic. but the sound is still shite !
Great picture by 'Shannon Warwick'

That looks a handful in those conditions. And very well handled. V nice to watch.

Thanks, conditions in the 2nd race were far worse and I managed to win, not bad for a Capri 👍

I remember the car from super road saloons , and had often wondered what happened to it and you Simon . Glad I caught the video 👍

[@QuadCamCapri]

Cheers, yeah we're both still going 🙂

Dude drives using the force, judging by the state of that windscreen 😂

[@QuadCamCapri]

Haha, it was worse in the 2nd race, so bad it wasn't worth uploading video, I won the race but the screen misted up last couple of laps !

Fuck me that sounds epic.

Read about this car in Autosport recently. Very interesting build and history.

[@QuadCamCapri]

Thanks Johnny, yeah I did waffle on a bit 🤭

[@meXicossie]

I’m so impressed with this car & how you can run with the fast Cosworths, do you have anything on how you built it??

[@QuadCamCapri]

Thanks, the car has evolved over many years from 1987 when I started racing. Autosport did a 3 page article on it recently, here's the online version....www.autosport.com/national/news/the-monstrous-capri-born-from-40-light-years-of-work
