Default air bags and antilag?

Has anyone seen/heard of an instance where our airbags deploy under hard launch using antilag?

Its a well known occurrence among supras and cars like camaro's and such.

Youtube has alot of examples. I think having those go off would prbably be pretty damn expensive

Well, just pull the connecter going to you seat airbag, it will disable the whole system. Simple to reset after drag racing

i wonder if they've improved the airbag impact sensor systems such that this doesn't happen with newer cars. obviously never heard of it with a Z, but the Z is way newer than supras and F bodies of course.

sure would suck to have that happen though.
