For those who like a few more wheels than usual

Interesting site, covers 6 or more wheeled vehicles, from formula 1
cars to all sorts of weird ****e, shame it's in french but no-one's
perfect! There's a lot of very odd machines on this site. Generally
no detail on the machines, just lots of pictures of bonkers trucks.

I was amused by the 6x6 jeep. Interesting the way the suspension was done,
too - normal-looking leaf spring (though it might've been stronger) fixed in
the middle with an axle on each end.

Yes interesting but nothing new, that type of rear suspension is used in
most twin rear axle trucks on our roads, like 6 wheel tippers and cement
trucks, also my ex American army truck built in the 1940's is just the same
allows for massive axle articulation.
Generally the springs also act to stop the axles tramping sideways and there
are tie bars to stop the axles rolling and moving backwards and forwards.
Could take some pics if anyone is interested !

76 and 77 look a wild beast.

Mind, looking at the rest of the site, the photographer seems more keen on
pictures of the female form.

Naw, you need a few spares! You need at least 3 to move, so I could
afford 4 punctures before being immobilised ;-)
