Anyone running Shockwaves?



The select ride series is a 2 position system using a valve like the FX-3 system (with only 2 settings, not 3).

Does your car bounce up and down too?

I like the look of some bagged cars but it just doesn't look right on the vet.

No it doesn't bounce, but it does raise up and down to accommodate for driving, speed bumps, etc. And at riding height it doesn't sit much lower than a stock vette. And actually handles better than you would think it would. Being exceptionally smoother riding also

Like I said before...I've seen that car years ago!
For a 'NOOOOBIE' you show you have no forum skills. We don't speak that way here.

Check the date on this post!!!!!!!
Please insert foot in mouth!


Remember: I didn't insult YOU, yet you come here and tell me I'm full ...! You are a class act indeed! Continue like that, you won't last to long here.

The pic with my dads work truck in the background has been posted on bagged life and everything low on facebook around july/august

he (baggedc5) has only had the car less than a year... I believe he got it this past summer... It does not look the same as the pic you posted above... That was also said in the thread on here...

I think the confusion is about the pics.... Baggedc5 is not very technology savvy... (I don't know why... because he is a lot younger than I am ) He was trying to post pics on here but like most newbs he did not know that you have to host pics off line and link them to CF...

Here are some pics from his FB page ...

these 2 are from when he was looking at buying it..





These are after it was bought:





should be 4 pics total... if you can't see them, I will host them at another location and repost.... I can see them, but they are on FB.. not sure if everyone can see them or not....

You will also notice my comment to him in this thread about running 11.1's....

Yes, baggedC5 is a $hit talker.... His old ride ran 11.1's.... But no one ever saw it run 11.1's... and he never would come out and run those 11's....

I give him $hit about it every time I see him

Just say NO!!!

For those who want to see a review of how a bagged car handles.... Can you really have it all?


"In the past I've thought of air suspension as a modification reserved for trucks, low riders, and show cars. But what about sports cars? Is it possible to have the look you want at a show, the handling you want at the limit, and the practicality of clearing speed bumps and driveways? The guys from Accuair Suspensions say there is, so we put their Audi S4 to the test."

Not on a Corvette no, just pointing out that air bags are not totally just for show.
