thats cool. It looked like the fronts were still coilovers. With the rears set with air pressure it seams like you could easily dial in each side. rather than turning the coilover lock nut just hook up the compressor.
if rules allowed you could have different air pressure at different parts of the track. I could see that idea working better in the front than the rear. change the front ride height to gain weight transfer and then to reduce air drag by dropping it down the track.
good to see some new technology

kick ass!
They've had programmable shocks out there in Pro Stock for awhile- this seems like an easier way to accomplish a shock pressure change on the way down the track.
Congrats once again to AIR RIDE for pushing the envelope. It wasn't too long ago when air bags were 'just for show cars'- now they're truly performance parts in different realms (drags and road courses) and they just keep getting better.
One of these years I'll have to get a setup for my own ride(s). I'm still on coils but I'm liking this more and more.
WTG Brett & Tony and the whole crew over there!
