Hump Day Holeshot: Ford Capri Pulls 4-Wheel Wheelie

Behold the power of the power-to-weight ratio! This week’s”Hump Day Holeshot” is yet another wild-ass ride in a tiny econo-box-turned drag racer. Watch as this Ford Capri snaps its wheelie bar on its way up towards the stratosphere. Building so much low-end torque, this little racer launches itself high into the air, lifting its entire body skyward, lifting all four wheels flying into the air for a second. Supposedly, the Capri is powered by a 608ci big block Ford back when this was filmed and has since stepped up to a massive 695ci big block Ford and has been painted black. (If you know anything about the driver or the car, please feel free to post it here!)
