Zakspeed Ford Turbo Capri
Zakspeed Ford turbo Capri beim AvD Oldtimer GP 2012 auf dem Nürburgring. Peter Zakowski fährt das Original Meisterschaftsauto von 1981, mit dem Klaus Ludwig damals gewann.
Das Fahrzeug ist mit dem kleinen Motor der Division 2 bestückt mit 1,4l Hubraum.
In beiden Rennen sah Zakowski die Zielflagge wegen technischer Probleme nicht. Im Rennen 1 bedrängt er Oliver Mathai im Porsche 935 und im Rennen 2 räumt er binnen kürzester Zeit das Feld von hinten auf.
Sowohl nach dem Training als auch nach dem ersten Rennen wurde am Fahrzeug umfangreich gearbeitet. Der Ladedruck ist noch nicht eingestellt und deshalb hat P.Zakowski die Hand häufiger mal am "Dampfrad".
Vom turbo Capri wurden insgesamt fünf Fahrzeuge gebaut. Ein Fahrzeug wurde zerstört, eines zu einem Mustang umgebaut, ein Fahrzeug wurde von Herbert Stenger bei Bergrennen eingesetzt, ein Fahrzeug baut Stefan Mücke in Berlin wieder auf und hier eben das 1981er Meisterschaftsauto bei Zakspeed.

Ford Capri 2,3 Golden Ghia Gedicht zum Abschied
Der Capri kam, beschleunigte die Herzen aller genannten Zielgruppen und siegte.
24 Jahre ist es her, dass der letzte Capri vom Band lief.
Ford Capri. Ein Name wie eine abgewetzte Lederjacke. Heulende V6-Maschinen. Leistungsarm und schadstoffstark. Ein Auto aus der Zeit von Hubraum statt Spoiler. Moment: Es gab ihn sowohl als possierliches Caprichen mit 1.3 Liter-Motor als auch mit 2.0 Liter und Spoilerlippe. Tja. Damit wäre eigentlich alles gesagt über dieses Coupé. Oder?
