 The Cars
The Cars were yet another late 70s band that responded to the bloat and pretension of overproduced studio rock with snappy tunes and stripped-down arrangements.
Blondie or the Talking Heads, the Cars had no particular message, and next to no interest in expanding beyond their synth-plus-guitar pop-rock sound; plus, lead singer Rick Ocasek has a thin voice that isn't particularly flexible or gripping.
The band was an immediate commercial success (their first five albums went platinum) and if anything, their popularity increased throughout the early 80s.

 Mousetrap cars and rubber band cars   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The "bearings" hold the axles to the car frame should be as smooth as possible: maybe make the axles out of plastic rod, and a drop of oil might be useful too if the materials are not too porous (e.g., plastic instead of wood).
Rubber band cars are powered by wrapping up a rubber band around one axle of the car, so that as the rubber band tries to unwind, it turns the axle and the wheels.
Mousetrap powered cars use the release of the spring to pull a string from around a drum or axle rather than a rubber band for the stored energy.

 Cable AML
The frequency band from 13.2 to 13.25 GHz can be used to create an upstream return path.
These transceivers are two-way, wireless, point-to-point, integrated transmitter/receiver pairs designed to extend the traditional CARS band AML downstream capacity from 552 to 870 MHz and to provide 2-way wireless DOCSIS based "upstream" data trunking simultaneously.
The additional bandwidth available in the 18 GHz band provides the capacity for the 552 to 870 MHz downstream extension as well as the upstream (return) channels from 5 to 42 MHz.
