AST 5200 with 9k/10k Swift Springs. SOLD.

Due to a change in my financial position I will no longer be visiting the track as often as I used to

These dampers were recently inspected by AST Netherlands.

I'll pay freight.

Now USD$3000.

How do these ride on and off the track?

You ask a question with a subjective answer.
On road they are firm but I didn't find them uncomfortable.
The quality if damping is such that there is no jarring or crash-y-ness but I don't know how you would find them. Certainly you know what is happening on the road surface. If I had known how docile they were on street I would have gone for higher rates but I had nothing to compare them to.


On track.....what can I say? The spring rates were probably a little soft for the tyres I was using (Kumho V710) but once again compromise. One nice thing about them is that each click of adjustment makes a tangible difference. It took me a couple of weeks of fiddling to get them set up to the way I liked.
