street car invitational
this show was HUGE!!! I probably walked 10 miles. There were many halls with displays.
here are a couple of shots of the main hall
This was the best car on display, to bad its a trailer queen
We were rubbing shoulders with the car restoration famous
The rest of the SEMA pix I took were all suspension related, imagine that
I didn't know that the new dodge charger had IRS
Here is another shot of the same IRS system, only out of the car
here you go ralphy
The next pix were from the Optima Street car Invitational. These cars had to be registered street legal cars and their drivers had to be "amateur" There was an autocross course a road course and a start stop challenge.
Most of the cars were Chevy but there was on ford and it was a good one.

I don't see anything special about that C4 IRS. Just prettied up. However it's a Super Dana 44.
The Dodge IRS appears to have toe-steer built in with the longer link behind the spring.

It looks like most recent multilink IRS designs, was part of the post-Mercedes-buyout of Chrysler and it's been in the Chrysler LX (300, Charger, Challenger) cars for a bunch of years now. More stamped steel bits than the Germans would do, but that takes some cost out.

Makes sense the booth was there to show the virtue of the bushings not the suspension. The C4 and Dodge IRS units were simply a means of displaying said bushings.
