Post Potential traction helper??? Whos the guinea pig??

Everyone,

While thumbing through the newest Truckin', I find an ad for RoadMaster Active Suspension.

"Revolutionize the performance of your leaf springs...Reduces Axl wrap & wheel hop...Will not harden ride"

Anyway, their site is:
www.activesuspension.com

Here is a customer testimonial:

"On November 11th 98, after fitting a
Roadmaster Active Suspension kit to
my Ford F150 Pick-up, I took the
vehicle back to the track. My times went
from 15.2 down to 14.8 seconds. This is
the fastest known 1/4 mile time
recorded for a stock block 4.6 liter
modular motorized truck. The wheel
hop and axle wrap from the rear axle
has gone. All due to fitting a
Roadmaster to this vehicle"

Anyone up to testing it out...Jim (FordSales)???

Later

Cool

So this guy drops almost a half of a second by changing suspension parts on the fastest recorded (of all times no doubt)4.6 stock block pick-up? LOL

Flats Man -

All you have to do when you get your new transmission is beat 14.8 to have the fastest stock block 4.6 modular motor truck in the known universe. Cool.

Not picking on you Brian, but that testimonial is pretty funny.
