They don't blow if you take care of em and don't let them rub on anything...

The money you spend on a good air ride setup could have bought you fully adjustable coilovers, subframe brace with swaybar and Ill bet a set of NICE summer tires.
This is all well and true but they've been designing air ride suspension for track cars and high end cars for years...

I know the Enzo has it as a drivability feature. Not for performance.

But what track cars do you speak of that use it?

I dunno but before I put my KP 6 link on my truck, for YEAAAAAAAAAAAARS I wanted and was dead set on gettin the Air Ride Technologies "road grater" kit for my s10 and shockwave setup...

ART is pretty much the grandfather of air ride... They're top notch, "crem da la crem" (sp?)...

Shit is pretty expensive but its well worth it...

I lol'd at grassroots muscle car comment when I thought back bout y'all's handling and bag blowin comments... Heavy muscle car, on air, on a track, extreme stress... Hmmm... I'll prove you fuckers wrong yet....

Btw, thanks for reminding me about them... I forgot to look into those guys for airstruts for my car...

I know it can be done. Never argued that, however for the price you pay for a good setup...

You're wasting your money on it.

:edit: I'd like to see those cars up there be setup with a good quality coilover and compare lap times.

I would too... It'd be interesting... But theres nothing like variable valving, spring rates, etc. on demand...

For air, I'm willing to pay the price...

Think about what I come from... lol... I just can't get away from it...

Unless you have the time to setup each possible scenario and spring/rebound/compression rates for your car youre just shooting yourself in the foot with too much adjustibility.

Work on the Nut behind the wheel before you think that the most awesome air ride in the world will yeld a better performing car.

In reality though I think your just getting it so you can lay frame on a honda without worrying about driving it that low.
