Cars will have to accelerate as fast as possible for 200 metres from a standing start, and then pull up in the shortest possible distance, for the cars have to keep a line between the axles.

Dyna Panhard, slightly damaged, undergoing the breaking and starting test. Cars will have to accelerate as fast as possible for 200 metres from a standing start, and then pull up in the shortest possible distance, for the cars have to keep a line between the axles. Rallye Monte Carlo 1951.

A slightly damaged Dyna Panhard is captured in a blur of motion on a wet track during the braking and starting test of the 1951 Rallye Monte Carlo. For this challenge, drivers had to accelerate 200 metres from a standing start before pulling up in the shortest possible distance. As the sedan speeds past striped cones, a small object flies from its rear wheel. In the background, officials and spectators watch from behind barriers adorned with advertisements for Lucas and Bougie AC.
