    I think last year the world SBK yamaha factory team used GPS adjustable suspension for different sections of the track. The suspension fluid has metal particles in it that can be adjusted by magnetic fields. This changes the viscosity of the suspension oil effectively upping the weight of the suspension oil in an instant.
    I think using this for MX would make much more difference than remapping fuel injection on the fly. I think it was banned for worldSBK after a season though.

    That's pretty high tech !!, I would have thought a small stepper motor on the compression/rebound(hi/low) would have be pretty nifty for MX/SX.
