That is AMAZING That will change the whole automotive world. Cars will never rattle since the body is never realy being jolted. Autocross racing will change too.

Since there is no body roll, would the only thing that can improve handling be tires?

That setup must cost like $10000

I kinda like transverse composite leaf springs and magneto-rheological shocks...

But I'm biased.

i have to agree. but i'm kinda biased too. too bad the shocks were (to my knowledge) deemed too heavy for the Z06's.

Are you biased because of the car they are featured on, or the supplier that manufactures them?
