chaseracer Posted March 8, 2022 Author Posted March 8, 2022 They'll be fine! 2CV's are overbraked anyway, and the racers use the standard anchors.

Why would you brake at all? That's what the suspension is designed for - cornering with the side at 1 degree to the road surface chaseracer and Crackers 2

davidfowler2000 Posted March 10, 2022 Posted March 10, 2022 I've seen the Dyane running on it's old engine but it was an utter bag of shite cos it was trying to run on the Ronseal Deck Sealer that the 20 year old petrol had turned in to. LightBulbFun 1
Inspector Morose Posted March 10, 2022 Posted March 10, 2022 -- MOROSE REPORTS -- Caught one of these to town, To catch one of these, One passenger on this train was this one. We headed to here, and after crossing the footbridge passing the sleeping pigeons I persuaded Mr Racer to allow me to photograph this, Before we got in a taxi to meet up with his old Dyane Which was fitted with a new one of these. In the yard, I was quite taken by this. Mr Racer was happy to be back behind the wheel and after a fill of fresh fuel and spilling a drop Mr Racer, the happy wee soul that he is HOONED. The end.

Inspector Morose Posted March 10, 2022 Posted March 10, 2022 Very well indeed. As it is always said that there’s no replacement for displacement, this rather proves the point. Coupled with a fancy electronic ignition (with bluetooth dontyaknow), a better carb, and a lightened flywheel, this makes the Dyane much more of a car suitable for modern day life. It’s still a 2 cylinder Citroen so refinement doesn’t enter into it but all round tractability is very much improved right through the rev range making it swift but not rapid. it’ only got about 500 miles as yet so when settled in, I’m sure it’ll be even betterer.
