Description

Velocitor (also known as Road Torch) is a futuristic sports car design made available in the 1991 Cap Blastin' series. Each car came with a launcher and 48 percussion caps. Each car had a metal piece on their rear where a cap would be attached onto; when the launcher was used, the plunger of the launcher would strike the back of the metal piece, causing the percussion cap to explode and create some noise. Refills for the caps were also available.

Two versions of the car (Velocitor and Road Torch) were made available in the six-car series; the other four being the Back Burner, Sonic Special, Jet Threat and Blast Trax. While the Back Burner/Sonic Special and Jet Threat/Blast Trax were rereleased as the Speed Blaster and Road Pirate in later years, the Velocitor never saw another release. However, the name "Velocitor" would later be used for a future release of the Thunderburner.
