Traxxion Dynamics’ Max McAllister obviously thinks he’s on to something. McAllister issued a press release that read:

“Max McAllister, President of Traxxion Dynamics, Inc. has recently formed a strategic alliance with Shogun Motorsports, an active sponsor of many racing teams and general positive force in the sport of motorcycle road racing. Shogun will provide Traxxion with funding to develop a revolutionary new damping system for Supersport racing motorcycles.

“McAllister’s vision and concepts, combined with engineering commitments from Penske Racing Shocks Vice President Jeff Ryan, will bring Formula One auto racing technology to professional and club-level racers around the world.

“The concepts, while currently unable to be revealed to the public, have been approved by all major sanctioning bodies except for the AMA. Prototype systems will be tested later in the 2001 racing season. Production components should be available to the racing public in 2002.”
