Is anyone here running Nitron Fastroad or Clubsport suspension?

I went from touring to clubsport. It's significantly more firm, but the ride is pretty good. It's not as amazing at soaking up road imperfections as the touring suspension, but hugely better on the track. On the street, I like 8 clicks from softest in front, and 10 clicks in back. For track, 2-3 extra cliscks is nice. I had it originally set up halfway at the shop, at 12/12 and that's a little too firm for the street, and it feels nicer if the front is a little softer, but this is all subjective, so I'm just sharing my baselines.

Really appreciate reading through your updates on here. Feels like I am in a similar boat..

Bought the Touring Chassis this time last year, and only got round to doing my first track day in November last year (plus 5 laps at the Nurburgring in August), and have since caught the bug and have 4 more booked already before Summer.

The touring chassis is too soft for regular track use, so I am reviewing upgrading to Nitron R1's, just I have the same question as everyone else.. FastRoad or Clubsport

I've done 7500 miles in my car, which has included two 1500+ week long road trips to Europe and back,. and will be doing two more similar trips this year + 6+ track days likely.

Since it's been a few months since your last update - I'd love to hear how you have been getting on with the Clubsports.

I love them, and they're fine for the street. Get the Clubsports. Even the Clubsports are borderline too soft for the track, but just borderline, they're totally capable. The car needs a firmer suspension than Clubsport or much more camber for really heavy track work.

The Nitrons require you to lower the car approximately 10mm, which for me is a bummer, since I scrape the nose more.

Thanks for the quick response on an old thread!

Good advice thank you. I had been steered towards the Clubsport, and so will go for those.

Hey there - anyone here using NTR1 Fast Road in Germany? As you can imagine, I'm asking because of TÜV...
