Are you lot all fucking thick or something? The Holden didn't lose because Jezza is a bad driver, the whole point of the race is that the Capri had been breathed on and fitted with a massive engine. That's how it's capable of annihilating a V8 bruiser like the HSV.
I've got exactly the same car he was driving and I can honestly say that he was not even using 70% throttle. At full throttle that 350 Chevy LS1 motor would have screamed like a banshee!!
hahahaha that was really funny. i know Jeremy was kind of building it up like the ford would smash it but i still wasn't expecting it! that ford is a rocket!
@BENDOON23 British body my ass, Aussie designed.. you yanks just take the bodies and put your own parts on them.. many aussie cars you's have done that with.
well to be fair, i play paino and that's also how i type so occasionally my little finger will miss or not press the key now if you really want to get into such a deep coversation about how ro why i didn't press the d in ford then there is something wrong with you XD
@snipeme101 well if you think about it on a video talking about cars your pointing out two obvious typos...
bottom line is both holdens and fords are iconic aussie cars and they've both got their pros and cons and for someone to say that one is better than the other is stupid cause it's based on opinion
@SuperCrazyDudeMan18 so you think that the holden didn't started in first gear?? Do you want me to tell you who wins?? the ford, by many, but SOOOOOO many seconds mate....
@ttmm1133 It's NOT Top Gear, it was on a video that Clarkson made. It was NOT fixed. The Capri is well known on the drag racing circuit. It has a 4x4 Sierra Saphire chassis grafted into it- note the manner in which the car takes off the line- FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. The engine is a 2 litre Cosworth unit that has extensively modified, it runs over 450 Bhp. The car will hit 60 mph in 3.2 seconds- as fast as a McClaren F1. At the end of the video, it destroys a 7.2 litre Brabus Mercedes. Rigged, my arse!
@Jacksoccer14 It was NOT faked. The Capri is heavily modified & is well known on the drag racing circuit in the UK. It has a Sierra Saphire 4x4 chassis grafted into it- FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. The engine is a 2litre Cosworth engine that has been heavily modifed. It kicks out over 450 Bhp & the Capri is lighter in weight than a modern day Fiesta. It hits 60 mph in 3.2 secs-as fast as a McClaren F1, that's why it wasted the Holden. You clearly know little about cars, the 4x4 is obvious on launch.
ofcorse its a holden, the crappiest car in the world no matter how new they are they are always going to be shit quality go euro power!!!!! at least you get something for the money.
@fannyrat It has a 2.0 cosworth engine and the 4wd system from a sierra sapphire cosworth( watch front wheel spin on take off) and is running somewhere in the region of 480bhp. Have seen the car in action and is simply awsome!
@fannyrat Nope. It has a 2 litre Cosworth engine that has been modded to produce over 450 Bhp. The car also has the 4x4 chassis from a Sierra Saphire- watch the way it take's off. It is well known on the drag racing circuit in the UK. Owned by a guy called Rusty from Lancashire. It hits 60 mph in 3.2 seconds- as fast as a McClaren F1. Turbo Technics 2.8i hits 60 mph in 6.1-6.5 seconds depending on which conversion, 200 Bhp, or 230 Bhp. I happen to own one.
i have to say but im a ford bloke and i say there is nothing bad with a holden its just your the enemy. but i think we should have truce and take out all japanese cars
@UnIuckyChucky in that case get ready to have your ass handed to you ... new GTR vs GTS.. wow i wonder what would happen there.. the truth is HOLDENS are slow and heavy and cant put power to the ground... forced induction is always going to be quicker..
the capri belonged to a fellow called peter kennady it has a cosworth unit running 440bhp and 4x4 transmission it also ended up with nitros it must be fun from on the traffic light drag strip watching an old capri dissapear
i bet you any money if you look into it that capri will be legal and i would also bet its a cosworth twin cam worked like christ pumping out twice the power of that piece of shit holden.
i think they would of been comparing what you can build for the price you can buy something.
@560287144602817 Exactly right. The Capri has a 2 litre Cosworth engine that punts out 450 Bhp. It also has a 4x4 Sierra Saphire chassis grafted into it. It is used for drag strip racing. 0-60 mph in 3.2 seconds.
honestly though i have a very lumpy (cams) 480awhp (350awkw) R33GTR and every single fucking time im in the thing almost every faggot in his stocker commo wants to race, i mean seriously i just want to enjoy my car... i do get the odd falcon every now and then but nowhere near as often, Ford owners are just smarter, they can sence when they are beat, but holden owners are mostly just fuckin retarted dickhead bogans that pull up becide you and go RUUUUT DARRRT DUT DUT DUT etc....
@swagonwheels if its one thing Top Gear is known for, is its sensibilities for a comparison. This was either a case of a Capri 'breathed on' to bring its power output to that of the Holden's, or the Capri was modded with a combined monetary value (of car and mods) to match the price of the Holden. Either way, it would be a valid comparison.
I personally think its the former, but the Capri's smaller and lighter body amplified the engine's performance in comparison to the bigger/heavier Holden.
@damieg82 I personally think this was called a performance designed to entertain. You were not looking at a comparison of two vehicles which had anything in common, neither were standard, I mean how much did the man have to tell you before you saw it as an entertaining piece and nothing more?. Both cars will get you to the shops. Personally, I'll take the Holden, it's space and far superior luxury, than a rattle trap of a Capri. Lets face it, the performance can't be used leagally anyway.
to answer your questions guys this capri udes a sierra cosworth 4X4 running gear and suspension with a sierra RS500 engine, from what i can remember it was producing approx 500bhp with nitros
Im no engineer here but isnt usually better getting a V8 then a turbo charged V6? Sure turbo is better but the engineers have to turbo charge the V6 engine to compete with V8s? My guess... but if you want to beat the Pro's cars gotta upgrade on anything and everything. Even if its changing the oil or something very small.
@FusionSportKid 6 Cylinder cars have better acceleration but v8's ussually have a better top speed but a 6 cylinder supra upgraded can get up to 380km/h.
@TheMassAnnoyance a good example of improvised genuine humor is Mike Rowe, from "Dirty Jobs". They dont have any script, so its quite funny to watch, and the bloopers in the end of each episode are great :)
@muSizm I always love guys like you. Honda guys in the States are just as dumb. This is a stupid compairison, it is about as dumb as taking a weekend cup racer's car and putting it up against a F1 team and calling it a race. This is simple math, I guess Europeans never learned...Same cars, same money in the motors, displacement always wins. I'm building a 496 bbc for 14lb of boost any euro built crap want to retest? here's your budget $2500-car $3000-motor Free-labor.
@crazy7hotrodder First of all... LMAO!! I speak from experience champ, im running 18psi on a gt35/40 a mild set up that is pushing 320rwkw. My set up cost me no more than $3500, you can do the math in converting kw to hp einstein. On my initial standard set up running 12 psi i still made 200rwkw and left 300kw factory v8s for dead. So please, shut the fuck.
@muSizm wow you are even dumber than I thought, F1-V8, Nascar-V8, Top fuel-V8. but your car we all know whould beat them. I paint and pit crew for a sprint car series out here we run 410sbc's all aluminum with mechanical fuel injection and methane our car pushes 980rwh-NA and take corners in the dirt at 130mph+. with a top speed of 160mph on a short track. there is no transmition only an on off switch in the diff. and my car is mostly for the track and we are shooting for 1600rwh on meth.
@crazy7hotrodder WOW so now were talking about nascar... Hmmmm. Im sorry but i dont compare my skyline to track cars, just beasts on the streets. Sorry super man, continue living in wonderland.
I could watch this video over & over again, for 3 reasons really...
1. I own a Ford Capri 280 and love it to bits, so much so I reckon I'll use it as a coffin and get buried in it.
2. I don't like Clarkson. I could add to that, but I'm too much of a lady... Ha
& 3. I just love Capri's in general, even poor old knackered and clapped out ones.
Brilliant vid, thanks.

why argue v8 vs v6, the capri is a 2.0 turbo (cosworth)

I'm a Holden fan all the way but you got to like the look of the Capri oh and the FAT GTs (Only because they are Australian)

Im no engineer here but isnt usually better getting a V8 then a turbo charged V6? Sure turbo is better but the engineers have to turbo charge the V6 engine to compete with V8s? My guess... but if you want to beat the Pro's cars gotta upgrade on anything and everything. Even if its changing the oil or something very small.

@FusionSportKid 6 Cylinder cars have better acceleration but v8's ussually have a better top speed but a 6 cylinder supra upgraded can get up to 380km/h.

Plain V8 engines are cooler then turbo charged and superchargered cars. :)

I hate the humor in Topgear. It's obviously scripted but they make it seem like they're making it all up. What's the word for it?

@Abyss0147 Yea. Maybe 'Awkward'.

@TheMassAnnoyance a good example of improvised genuine humor is Mike Rowe, from "Dirty Jobs". They dont have any script, so its quite funny to watch, and the bloopers in the end of each episode are great :)

@Abyss0147 I'll search him on Youtube. The great British humor is becoming very rare :(

@TheMassAnnoyance He's not British, sorry if I mislead you. Talking on british humour, I'm off to watch some of "Allo Allo, this is Nighthawk" :D

@muSizm I always love guys like you. Honda guys in the States are just as dumb. This is a stupid compairison, it is about as dumb as taking a weekend cup racer's car and putting it up against a F1 team and calling it a race. This is simple math, I guess Europeans never learned...Same cars, same money in the motors, displacement always wins. I'm building a 496 bbc for 14lb of boost any euro built crap want to retest? here's your budget $2500-car $3000-motor Free-labor.

@crazy7hotrodder First of all... LMAO!! I speak from experience champ, im running 18psi on a gt35/40 a mild set up that is pushing 320rwkw. My set up cost me no more than $3500, you can do the math in converting kw to hp einstein. On my initial standard set up running 12 psi i still made 200rwkw and left 300kw factory v8s for dead. So please, shut the fuck.

@muSizm wow you are even dumber than I thought, F1-V8, Nascar-V8, Top fuel-V8. but your car we all know whould beat them. I paint and pit crew for a sprint car series out here we run 410sbc's all aluminum with mechanical fuel injection and methane our car pushes 980rwh-NA and take corners in the dirt at 130mph+. with a top speed of 160mph on a short track. there is no transmition only an on off switch in the diff. and my car is mostly for the track and we are shooting for 1600rwh on meth.

yeah right like that capri is stock, if that Vt is what i think it is was the GTS with the 300kw C4B it can pull a 13.1 1/4 in the right hands
