Chris Wilson Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Anyone old enought to remember the DTM series in the early eighties will recall the awesome Zakspeed built turbo Group 5 Capris. A web site has just been created documenting these fabulous beasts. http://www.geocities.com/zakcapriturbo/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Stox is going to be heaven when he sees that site! I didn't know they ever used Capris in DTM. Seems an odd choice. Capris were famous for their awful handling, weren't they? Not that those car bear any resemblance to a road-going Capri. Rather like the JGTC Supras I suppose.

Capris were famous for their awful handling, weren't they? Not that those car bear any resemblance to a road-going Capri. Rather like the JGTC Supras I suppose. IMO Capri's and bad handling were mainly due to people not being able to control high powered, (for their day) RWD cars. I had a couple of modified Capri's and I never had any problems with them, but I did grow up with RWD. Cool site Chris. I remember them very well.
