Unhappy accidentally drove with my bags airred out

Hey guys. This morning I was barely awake and had to go to work. Didnt realize my car was airred out and started my car. Put the car in drive and gassed a little bit before hearing some scrapping.. stupidly realized my car was airred out.. My main concern is whether I did any damage to the bags or my car? I only drove about a foot or two.

I'm sure it is fine. I can't tell you how many times I have tried to drive aired out.....especially if my car was already started....I obviously don't go far because my exhaust scrapes and my tires touch my fender lol. What management do you have? Mine is programmed to air up as soon as I start my car so normally I don't have to worry.

I also think its fine. I have done it before too. Check your rims for any curb rashes. At most your exhaust mufflers and under body got a bit of scratches.

sounds like its time to get a management kit that auto raises for you.

Mine airs up when I start and I've still done it a few times lol. It does nothing for you when you start it and air it out I'll start it because I'm getting ready to leave a meet but then I'll get out and chat while it's warming/cooling or my air tank is filling. Then like an idiot get it and try and drive off.....like I said I don't make it far though LOL

My Airlift 3H management system airs up every time I start the car.
