| In relation to you reference to front wheel drive vehicles, no reference is made to the first successful FWD Tracta, designed & built by J.A.Gregorie & his associate Pierre Fenaille and their success in licencing their FWD systems to , DKW, , then Adler (Trumpf). Subsquently England took up the licence for their "Tracta joint" for military vehicles & through Bendix, the U.S. started to use the "Tracta joint" for their Jeep production. I beleive much more credit should be givento this man, in establishing the FWD system as the prefered drive system for most smaller cars of today. ref. "Best Wheel Forward"plus |

| Dear Sirs: I just enjoyed the three chapters on Light Sports Roadsters. What lovely automobiles! But most facinating to me was that some of these machines -- such as the Frazer Nash TT Replica -- used a chain gang transmission with as many as four ratios. I have been toying with the idea of fabricating a chain gang transmission for some time now, and would love to learn how they were built back then. I do understand the basic dog clutch, but there is no doubt more to it. I have previously found schematics of some motorcycle two speed chain gangs, and this was helpful, but any and all further guidance would be much appreciated. Most cordially, Elliot S.
