Stephen,

The current championship regulations are here:-

There do not appear to be any restrictions on suspension at all.

However, I'd act with extreme caution before spending on suspension upgrades!

I compete for many seasons with standard springs and dampers. I changed to Nitrons at the end of the 2017 season, but I can't say my performance has been significantly different since fitting them.

Fastest time of the day was set at our first Curborough sprint on standard Bilsteins on my son Tom's car.

So. Having your car set up correctly to start with should be your first step. The only change I'd recommend for a standard Roadsport, would be a stiffer front anti roll bar. I ran with narrow track for many years with a 5/8" red bushed front bar.
