Well that merits a triple wow.

1 for it being front wheel drive with a configuration like that.
2 for you being correct http://www.nolinkshere.youknow.it (http://www.nolinkshere.youknow.it)
3 for no particular reason other than I like your user name  :)

So THAT is where Honda-san got the idea for the S600 suspension - just at the opposite end!    :P

besides the natural evolution, there occur to me at least two important factors - things became much more professional, so you need someone who watches the things in real time, with access to a lot of expensive books, paid subscriptions and documentation in other languages than English and French, people like oguerrerob, fyodor or the lady that pretended herself chinese, then north korean, but he might be vietnamese - after negyesi bought the site, he kept bringing his ex-communist friends; they support and bring each other over the whole west nowadays and that's not a fad, it's getting permanent.

Indeed.
But whilst Pal Negyesi is a fully committed and extremely involved puzzler (I don't know how we would manage without him!) he didn't actually buy the site.
The site was bought from Ultra and Otto by Paul Jaray, Allemano, nicanary, Bill Murray (now sadly deceased) and me. As it's registered in my name I'm the one who pays all the necessary fees to keep it all going, but unfortunately am not knowledgeable enough to really be involved any more except in an Admin capacity.

Thanks for replying to that rather oddly ill-informed post. Pnegyesi is hardly a communist threat - he now lives in England!
