Best for Track
Wondering whether to stick with standard Sti legs and Prodrive springs for my track car or swap them with BC Coilovers with the basic damper (stiffness) adjustment and Camber adjustment, what do you reckon?

BC coilovers are not ideal for track work, they have very little droop and cause the inside rear wheel to lift in tight turns like hairpins. I had this issue and no amount of tweeking and changing roll bars,madam per settings, spring rates etc helped the fact is they do not have enough drop. To be fair to the BC's they are not really designed for that as a road coilover they are probably pretty good value for money.
No experience of the standard set up on track but suspect it may not be ideal either but in reality unless you have the budget to go for some KW Varv3's or KW club sports it might be worth giving the standard set up a go and adding decent roll bars and good track geo setup.
