Track Day Chronicles - My Progression from E30 to S50 Swapped E36

Wow, that cage came out fantastic!
You wouldn't know it was your first one based on the quality.
Looked like a ton of fun with the fabrication (but maybe a little less so due to your tight timeline?)

I love those notch templates you used, going to try and keep that in the back of my mind if I need to notch tube in the future.

Dashboard delete panel looks clean as well, love a tidy racecar aesthetic!


Glad the trackdays went well, did you happen to take any video? Would love to see/hear that S50 scream at laguna.

Panici - thanks man! I appreciate that. Yes the tight deadline definitely had me a bit overwhelmed at times but it also provided laser focus motivation and I enjoy getting all-consumed in a project from time to time. I probably have over 80 hours into the cage alone but if I were to do it all over again now I could do it significantly faster. Lots of learning curve time in there. It’s definitely a very labor intensive process.

The notch templates are awesome, as soon as I discovered that that was a thing, it was game on. They really don’t take that long to cut and smooth out and the fitment is great.

as for video - yes, if you look towards the end of my last post, I posted links to videos to both of my laps at Buttonwillow and Laguna Seca
