The driver does have big balls but the car was very fast for what it was. Engine was second hand, unknown mileage or history. Never checked. Just changed the oil. It is all 2cv parts apart from the engine. stiffer springs, Ami shocks, 2cv brakes, clutch and gearbox. I just wish it had been a bit nicer but then thats half the fun.
@JakobusVdL
@JakobusVdL 6 лет назад
Pete Sparrow, I guess the poor conditions played to the strengths of you, and the car. You'd have been crushing some ego's out there. I'm really impressed by how robust the standard 2CV mechanicals are, and how well you make it handle. Great work

The original pre WW2 engineering brief was so ahead for its time, the Nazi were looking for the drawings & prototype cars but could not find them. Only after WW2 did Citroen start producing the 2CV. The Snails design is legendary.

Owned 3 2CVs and had 1 with turbo, lightened crank and flywheel, no idea of the HP but better carburation with a large delorto, as soon as you start getting more HP you really really need better discs, used slightly larger ventilated (therefore thicker) discs with the twin pot callipers from the donor car, 25+ years ago now, braided lines, better fluid and pads, rear drums are adequate. Lose as much weight as you can off the car, composite doors, wings, boot lid, bonnet, rear seats & polycarbonate windows all around, other than the windscreen. Cut suspension tubes underneath apart and put stiffer springs in, Monroe (I think) dampers as they are horizontally mounted, not many worked horizontally. Lowering (by adjustment of the suspension tie rods) changes the naturally soft rising rate to softer so compensating by much stiffer springs gave a comfortable ride with slightly less body roll, yes it had an anti roll bar, some didn't. The main problem was it topped out at about 85/90mph simply because I never got around to figuring out how to change the gearing in top. Not really a problem though as up to 80 was paramount really. Great fun and never failed to get interested looks after seeing off BMs & GTIs at the next junction or lights. Fantastic platform to use for a sleeper. Sold it about 17 years ago and lost touch with it's history after that. Seeing this brought it all back. Well driven and the sound XXX Just one thing, cane it into, round and out of every corner, if not the tyres, even wider ones, will try tucking in 🙂

@terrylill2363
@terrylill2363 10 лет назад
the suspension springs may be standard, as in the standard 200% hardened springs that are regulation in the 2cv racing class. but either way this look fun and definitely makes me want to have a try at making such a car myself ive seen too many bmw boxers powering trykes how hard is it to add that extra wheel?

enjoyed the vid as used to drive one of these years ago. great fun trying not to roll it on corners but they just hang on for dear life. I wanted to hear that motor more as when you could hear it over the crap music (as usual) it sounded very good and nicely tuned. a good car for cheap racing , love the way it was smoking some of the contenders on the track.
