The interesting part in the Car Craft article is that they say that this is the type of suspension that has been used in NASCAR ever since the early sixties when it first came out in trucks (and still is?). There is even a rumor that they started using this trailing arm type of suspension in the pickup trucks so that they could use it in NASCAR.
