@@TrackandTuner Not quite, the Zackspeed Turbo Capri was a monster and still is. However, it generated about 600 hp max, wich is stil extremely high for an 80s 4 banger with a displacement of 1,7L. The most astounding thing on thi car must be the turbocharging system, the original engine had very little turbo lag.
TrackandTuner records the Zakspeed Capri Turbo. This turbo monster is a 850kg race car featuring a Ford Cosworth BDA (modified by Zakspeed) 1.75-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine which in its last evolution was able to produce 700HP at 9000 rpm. This car has been freshly built by Zakspeed and was in action for the first time at the Nürburgring GP during the AvD Oldtimer GP. Step onboard this great Ford and enjoy the video.
It sounds incredible what i wouldnt give for a chance to experience a passenger ride (I realise its single seat but wow every capri fans dream right there including me. I always think the zakspeed would be better with a tuned v6 as most of the high end road going capris but i suppose it was more about weight saving and high revving capability that made it a more favourable choice
Tiny engine, big turbo, light chassis: A recipe for an iconic race car. I only wish the American Mustang version was being raced, instead of gathering dust in a collection.
Ein sehr schönes Auto!! Mein Lieblings REKORD. Dem steht sogar die etwas außergewöhnliche Farbe jener Zeit. Der kleine "KAD" . Die Frontpartie schön eckig und schon die Scheinwerfer vom späteren C Modell. Und ordentlich Chrom hat er. Wohl die L Version. Danke fürs Hochladen!
I know that modern gearbox is matter, but when i watched he driving this absolute gorgeous monster makes me rethink what a skillful racing driver back then. Racing cars back then creates skillful racing driver. Sorry to all modern race car lovers.
Pure pornography! There should be some kind of warning before you can watch this video….OMG. It’s one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Perfection.
@@cam_121 You can see, that lambda value on the display. On throttle it is a bit higher then 0.8. Of throttle they use the fuel to cool the engine but on part throttle it is to rich, which gives those missfires. So you are not wrong i guess.
The misfires are definitely the TC. Now why it runs rich off throttle is just because it is a Kugelfischer mechanical injections. These are a nightmar to tune for good power AND good overrun/part load.
It takes some skill to drive these , theyre not like newer racecars with all sorts of driving aids. Have a look at Erick Zakowski capri video, i dare you to say he is slow 😆😆
This car might be my favorite of the '70s/'80s Group 5 racing cars. Racing in that era was so much better than the boring events of today.
trueeeee
me too
Yes

@@AD-mcfurious3663 Detonation?
The fact it was holding level against a mid 2000s DTM car on the start shows just how mad these cars are
Even modern supercars now. This thing weights nothing and can produce over 700HP. So 1 to 1 power /KG ratio just like Koenigsegg
@@TrackandTuner And don´t forget the ground effect ;)

Für mich als Fan waren und bleiben die Gruppe5 Zakspeed, das non plus Ultra. So was Genial geiles gibt es nicht noch einmal.

Geiles Auto schade dass es so was , bald nicht mehr gibt.
Dass war noch Autofahren.
Ich habe 1981 in Hockenheim diesen Capri erlebt , eine Gänsehaut!!!!
Diese livery?
@@TrackandTuner Yes , April 1981 Hockenheim , Klaus Ludwig im Zakspeed Capri . Auch Stefan Bellof in der Formel 2 gesehen.
Turbo engines dont sound like this today!
Correct this one sound great and flames for days.
Wunderbar ! Der schönste Rennwagen aller Zeiten !!
I see your avatar
@@TrackandTuner I do not understand what you mean
@@degu5249 Er meint dein Bild vom Account ;) Das nennt man auch Avatar.
Für mich auch.
1400 cc. 9000 rpm. turbo big as a frying pan
Hot wheels just released this car it’s a beautiful casting with ford Motorsport all over it.
Sounds amazing 😍😍🥰

Man we need these cars in gt7 would be nice to run gr5
I Drive this Zakspeed Turbo Capri in Project Cars 2 in PS4 vs BMW 320/ Porsche 935 and more and Group 4 Ferrari 512 BB LM ,BMW M1 ,Porsche 924 GTP😍👍
The Mucke Motorsport Zakspeed Capri was running away from the DTM 4 wheel drive Audi.
4wd Audi ???!
Top danke fürs Hochladen
Danke
Beautiful car & sound!
thx
These Zakspeeds are legends!....Good job driving but that DTM Audi was too much and that black Zakspeed was gone.
Yeah driver is a bit more experienced in that Audi DTM
The Porsche Killa 👍👍

I agree, I love my classic cars
Driving one of these cars was a nightmare. No sequential, no abs/tcs, a lot of turblo lag.
The one in the video has TCS
Pure pornography! There should be some kind of warning before you can watch this video….OMG. It’s one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Perfection.
warning 18+
Are the hesitations lack of partial throttle tuning or traction control of sorts?
Traction control
Electronics
Sounds like it's running a bit rich
Turbooooo. First outting of the car, so maybe
@@TrackandTuner not a major issue at all, just some adjustment on the carb and it should be fine.
@Sean Gavin ah I see. Thanks. Still think in this particular video clip it was running a bit rich.

Davon wurden nur Fünf Fahrzeuge gebaut.
The gasoline-air mixture is too rich. Probably to protect the engine. However, it costs performance.
Warum gibt es solche Autorennen nie mehr. Überhaupt ohne Sequenz Getriebe. Es gab eine Kupplung und man musste den Schalthebel richtig einstellen
Gear 1????? Wow amazing
What do you mean gear 1?
@@TrackandTuner he drop to gear 1 isn't it?
@@JAVTROOPER dogleg gearbox, it was 2nd
Whats with the door knob on the dash?
I'm sure that's how the boost is wound up and down during the race....seriously...
@@feydespiel. that's a funny AF boost controller
In the middle of a race...you been to be able to get to the boost control easy...
In a race your supposed to go forward aren't you not backwards 😜☺️ not a good car seems very slow
