A section by section look at how the car behaves on the AST suspension vs what is was like with the BCs - just for fun.

From the Feb and April 2016 trackdays at Knockhill Racing Curcuit.
Worth noting that the ASTs were only tested on 2 hours of very busy track time, so the laps were a lot slower than the BCs - this is just an initial comparison to see how the car behaves with the 2 different set ups - I have no doubt the ASTs will be faster once I have more seat time.
Note that all else is equal bar minor geometry changes (-5 minutes toe each side and -2 camber with the BCs vs -4minutes toe each side and -2.5 camber with ASTs)
BC's have 70N/40N Springs; ASTs have 80N/80N (should be 100N rear awaiting AST to deliver)
For reference BC Racing Best Lap: 1.02.52 (1.02.63 also)
Best lap on the ASTs I could manage that night was a 1.03.6
