the first track day I went to was at angelsey and there was a couple of the 2CV racers there. Surprisingly good on track if a little slow was chatting to one of the drivers in the paddock and he reckoned they only had 45bhp but only weighed something like 500kg all up with driver etc. they were lowered to fook aswell, proper mad camber on the wheels
