[Fot] Spitfire rear suspension mods in Vintage racing

That is more of what I had in mind with the aim of using a CV joint rather
than rotoflex and using the Spitfire upright rather than having to seek a
good pair of GT6 rotoflex uprights.

I have looked at the pRI set up. It makes the rear more independent. But to
get away from the swing arm completely  use the GT6 lower a-arm with a cv
setup.   That sounds like a really sweet setup to me in my mind.
