Hi,

BMW from the E90 with the Multi link
rear, which Merc had back in 1982/3,
allows for many more Tricks at the
rear axle, like Transaxles, pushrods etc
without compromising the overall
handling and ride dynamics.

Its how the rule book views it, though.

Rear Trailing arms have always hindered
this type of set up.

Even BMW in the 91/92 DTM Days were
using Monocouque 'arms' at the rear
in an attempt to reduce sprung/ un-sprung
mass etc.

Regards,

The Gorilla.
