<VV> Swing Axles

[jvhroberts at aol.com]

 Well, winning and not complaining are somewhat different. The Auto Union race cars were phenomenal! But the swing axle rear suspension was treacherous, according to the drivers. 911's semi trailing rear suspension also got lots of gripes, all the time while drivers were winning races.

 but swing axles are left in the dust compared to a four jointdesign. 
  

 If you will read carefully what I stated, I said nothing to comparethe swing axle with any other independent rear design, nor did I sayanything about superiority.  Just that folks that had them weren'tcomplaining about them when their cars were winning the races of thatera.
