In the very early days there were quite a few that didn't have effective suspension with over hard springing and no real damping, and relied mainly on the tyre flex as suspension. The difference between then and now though is that now we have low profile tyres that need foam inserts to support them instead of the firmer semi pneumatic tyres we had to act as suspension back then, and we weren't trying to jump our cars six feet into the air on the tracks back then either.
