So how does this tame looking Capri scoot down the quarter in 10.4 seconds at 130 mph???  Look below to find out, it is really much more simple than you think.  For a total investment of less than $10,000 plus some mechanical talent on your part, you too can build your own F-body killer.  And just imagine what it could do with a little more fuel system and some more nitrous!!??
