The Casimir Ragot Spéciale is a French racing car.

Casimir Ragot from Bordeaux ran a garage and drove car races. As he was dissatisfied with his racing cars, he and his son Charles Ragot began developing a roadworthy racing car from 1929 onwards. The open two-seater vehicle, called CRS 001, is based on a Bugatti . The four-cylinder engine from Fiat with 1438 cm³ displacement develops 140 HP with a compressor . The maximum speed is 180 km / h.

The vehicle has been preserved and can be viewed in the Musée de Sanxet car museum in Pomport .
