Why should I attend?

Automotive suspension systems serve the dual purpose of providing comfort and control for the driver. This requires careful equipment and testing for the ultimate experience. With advancements in electronic suspension systems, the issues of reliability, system integration and aftermarket continue to escalate. Relentless efforts are going into the research of active systems for the purpose of educating consumers on how to drive with improved technolgy but passive suspension systems still dominate and contribute to vehicle dynamics
