      New Viking active shocks

      I was reading thru the latest PHR and the SEMA coverage, saw that Viking has this new Berserker ASM thing. Basically it looks like computer controlled suspension that adjusts itself 1000 times a second. Wish I knew more but that is mostly it. Anyone else have more info, cost or availability? I will not be needing shocks for probably a year but I really like to know the parts that my car will eventually have. I have planned on using ride tech triple adjustables but this may sway me

      New Viking active shocks

      Call them and ask. They're really nice and a pretty small company.
      Last I heard, they were awaiting some real world testing and they were hoping to have some in stock by summer. They look like a pretty neat setup!

      Also, check Viking's FB page. Chris (the President) has his Camaro in restoration right now. It will have this system on it...

      When i got my 4 vikings last month....berserkers weren't ready, (they will be the cats meow). As dale said...give them a call. Who ever answers the phone will take the time to talk with you and answer your questions, or will put someone on that can. They may be a new company, but as most know...they bring alot of knowledge into it from there past ventures.

      sounds really coolI wonder if you can also program settings, say a drag setting, auto-x/roadrace setting, cruise setting(stock boat ride) or simply leave it in auto-adjust?

      outlawed like I cannot even participate with them on or just will not get points for doing it? I do not care about competing for a championship with this car

      Just got off the phone with them, very excited about this thing. System sounds awesome and tunable on the fly, data acquisition, etc...Should start to be available in April!

      Yeah, around $5k for the whole thing. That is a lot less than I was thinking

      Looks like I'm not the only sarcastic person here.

      Busted... I have a 69 Camaro shell set aside for my final and hopefully best bucket list build. It would be great to use an AME IRS and their subframe on that build if I could afford it.

      I know they plan to offer a longer shock for those who are planning to do the coil-over extend a bracket from Globalwest and UMI Performance
      Also will be around 3 cars or so tracking at the good guys event in Ohio
