Reply to "Air Ride Suspension Info Wanted"

Not exactly an "air ride" system, but check out Dick Koch's post on the shock technology he put into his radical twin turbo Pantera:

Here's an excerpt, but follow the link above for the whole story...
For those of you that want to keep abreast of the latest auto technologies available, you might be interested in the 3rd generation implementation of the Magneshock which gives the promised increased user control of important shock variables.

Dick Anderson, the inventor and developer of the packaging and user programmability aspects of the shock, is the friend of mine who , as you may remember, worked with me to install the Magneshock system in my 74 Pantera several years ago.

See http://home.earthlink.net/~arkoch/images/Shocks/ to view a few pictures of the shock selection controls, both on the dash and the steering wheel, and the placement and installation of the shock computer control unit. The steering wheel switches allow the driver to instantaneously change the shock settings from 3 of the 5 user shock setups saved in the shock computer unit, giving the driver 3 distinct shock setups to match road or track onditions. The dash mounted switch that is to the right of the AC fan switch allows the driver to switch between 1 of 5 user shock setups saved in the shock computer unit.
