Just wondering what peoples opinions were on best suspension set-up for track use only. Currently doing a project and I was thinking of going for Billy B8's with the GMC springs.
I have also heard of some people using GAZ coil overs.
Thanks

What is the car used for primarily? Road or track? Do you use road tyres? Do you want an all rounder or can you cope with a bit more bodyroll when on track or a very harsh ride on the road? and finally whats your budget.

Will be used for track only, I will be running R888's for tyres. Not to fussed about the ride comfort as will only be used on track.
As for budget.... I'm looking around £600, but if I can get a setup that is massively different then I could push it too £850

As long as you dont run slicks I would say go for Gaz (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/car-tuning/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-suspension/coilover-kits/citroen-saxo-gaz-height-adjustable-gha-coilover-kit.html). Budget on a torsion bar upgrade as well.

can I just ask why the GAZ coilovers instead of the usual B8 Setup that most go for?

Also, what should the Torsion bar be upgraded too?

As you want a track setup you really dont want a soft damper and spring setup. I dont think you will want less than a 280lb spring on the front. I'd go for a 23mm torsion bars personally if you are using road tyres.
