       Strange questions!

       I thought I had seen most of the odd ones, a very long time ago.
       On the forum "The Cyclekart Club" 2 of us asked the host, Skye
       if we could create a FAQ, which he happily agreed to, and just
       recently has been updated. That was done over 10 years ago, most
       FAQ are still relevant.
       However, a couple of weeks back I bought from Tim Gunn the
       marvelous publication of "The Cyclecar, volumes 1 to 10". What a
       fabulous book. Ironically although originally published as
       weekly news sheets/magazines in November 1912, there are so many
       questions asked about such things as wheels, how to increase
       horsepower, springs and chassis material that are all being
       asked 112 years later, on  almost every cyclekart site I know of
       around the world.
       One thing I did find even more interesting is that almost none
       of the cyclecars illustrated (and there are a huge number being
       produced, not at home) use the sorts of springs that cyclekarts
       commonly do. Coil springs, are very evident. Not to be seen are
       wishbones!
