strange claim


A camel being a horse made by a committee of engineers?

The SD1 suspension works pretty well for what it is. Didn't need much
in the way of modification for the considerable success the car had in
racing and rallying.


how is that relevant?


Becuase the strut front suspension is as basic as you can get. The bottom
of the strut is located 'in and out' by a simple control arm, not
wishbone. And the 'fore aft' by the anti-roll bar.
