I marvel at this type of suspension added to even "track toys" like this one. The idea seems to be to lose unsprung weight so the suspension has less inertia and can react faster, but the owner usually fits some kind of mega-wide and heavy wheel/tyre setup which kind of defeats the object.
In this example of course the wheels may be super lightweights...
