Default RideTech Air Suspension

Has anyone else seen this? I think it's a interesting idea, kinda reminds me of lambo's and how they can lift their car to get over bumps and such.

Yup I have seen it. To do a Rideteck system corectly it is gonna cost you around 4 G's giv or take a lil.

At SEMA the guys in Air Lift said that they were gonna release a kit that would run around 2200 but they have still yet to do so. Im waiting patiently now.

I'm more interested in the cage they had there, that looked pretty slick.

Not kidding. I literally just caught partial wood at the bagel shop watching that video. I can't stand up for a while.

I've never entertained the idea of a controllable air suspension. Anyone have any comments on long term reliability and how this type of suspsension compares on a road course to a good strut/spring combo or coilovers?

And someone please tell me which wheels he is running on that car?
