Something made me Google "2CV Racing" today, and I found this...
"When you think of "endurance racing", the first car that comes to mind may be a sports prototype, like the evocative Silk Cut Jaguars, or perhaps a Porsche 911 rocketing down the Mulsanne straight at Le Mans. You probably wouldn't think of a Citroen 2CV, unless you were mad."
... here.
Anybody know if 2CVs have ever raced on this side of the Atlantic?
Very cool. Lane Motor Museum has a few 2CV race cars in their Nashville museum:

Check their collection for some other 2CV variants, too.
In reply to Stealthtercel:
I watched some of the videos and I agree, this looks like great fun.
Naturally when I clicked the link the first thing I did was look for a "For Sale" section.....
Are they easier to find than school busses?
probably not... but they are easier to drive

My buddy had one here in TN and I had the opportunity to drive it. It was a 1986 model, IIRC. I think they went unchanged almost as long as the Bug.
