air ride

OK, i cant remember where but i read an article about Air Ride Technologies track testing a new f-body air ride system. I googled it and got nothing, anyone know anything about this? i think it would be bad ass, it would probably handle like a dream, and you could lay the car out when you park it. but i wonder how it would be for drag racing?

Seems like I remember reading about something like that from ART...

Thanks for the link. It does seem a little pricey, but not too bad.

Pricey eh? Consider the alternative of hydraulics, and then consider the benefits of air bags over hydraulics... not saying I can imagine paying for the kit, but I've heard nothing but good things about it. There's a couple people on here that have it, hopefully they'll tune in.

I watched an episode of Horsepower tv where they put a air ride set up on a SS Camaro. You might be able to find that episode for sale on their web-site.
