Every subculture has its own crazy habits. For example, we have heard that owners of the energy-saving miracle Lupo 3L put the cars in a row during meetings and let them idle. Whoever turns on the cooling fan last wins. Owners of NSUs greet each other by raising a number of fingers. The number of fingers represents how many blocks they have already replaced.
This group of Citroën Xantia drivers is surely the strangest club. The French sedan is equipped with SC-CAR, which stands for System Citroën de Control Actif du Roulis† In other words: a hydraulic suspension that ensures that the body remains level.
A predecessor of this system obviously saved the life of French President Charles de Gaulle in 1962 when his car was shot at during an attack. The suspension allowed the car to flee on three wheels. That is exactly what these guys imitate with their Xantia. They disassemble one of the wheels and see how fast they can go.
