Temperature didn't make as much difference as fog!

I know... you have to be crazy to drive a 2cv flat out in mist / fog... but hey shit... it was fun hearing it SCREAM!

That's the secret. A colder charge is a denser charge (more oxygen, and with
carbs more fuel) so there is more power. The humidity can help ensure no det-
