35 Years ago, Piet Kreeft started his career at the Research & Development Department at a well known shock absorber company. At that time they supplied shock absorbers to the automotive racing and other industries. After a short period in R&D, Piet specialised in suspension technology for sports and racing applications. Five days a week he worked on the development of shock absorbers, while his weekends were spent on sports and race tracks all over the world where he amassed a wealth of experience and information.
He always maintained close contacts with the engineers and drivers of the cars and was able to test new developments in practice immediately. We can safely say that the shock absorbers purpose built by Piet Kreeft helped many drivers cross the finish line as the race winner. And among many famous names was Emmerson Fittipaldi in the Indycars in Indianapolis, USA.
Then, Piet Kreeft decided to combine his extensive knowledge and experience with the specialist product know-how of the Smits Engineering Works of Valkenswaard, The Netherlands, leading to the creating of AST.
As an AST dealer we can supply and fit a range of coilover suspension from a fast road car, to a full race car.
