Get a grip!
By Vikram Sunderraj

You are on a highway topping around 160 kmph and there is a curve ahead. What are you going to do? Tempted to step on the gas pedal and make the curve like Kitt from the Knight Rider show? I guess not! Our cars are not sophisticated enough to handle such a beating or rather challenging forces of speed.
A few weeks ago I was driving on a highway cruising at 100 – 120kmph. The stock suspension of the car was giving away while take a 70 degree curve bend at classified speeds. Gulp! That’s when I decided it was about time I got better hold on the car and went onto place my order for the sports suspension from Pedders (Australia).
Expensive, but worth every penny, the Pedders is a sophisticated suspension system. My feedback in one word after the upgrade is “Fabulous”. The car just sticks to the road while cornering and road holding is just unbelievable. What makes this system effective you may wonder. There is a whole lot of research and innovation behind this suspension system.
The unique VRD (Velocity Responsive Dampening System) is the key to the experience with the Pedders suspension kit. Pedders developed the VRD valve that has a micro orifice located in the shock absorber piston through which the oil flow is regulated or controlled resulting in progressive shock response rate.
The narrow passage opens up for free flow of oil at low shock speeds but restricting the flow at higher speed rates when oil velocity increases. The end result is a very accurate and responsive shocks giving you solid control of the car at high speeds and cornering.
