    Stoked

    Getting closer to march 10-12 which happens to be the first Peachtree BMCCA drivers school at Road Atlanta.

    Can't wait to test out the latest additions to my newly designated track car 4 point cage, Corbeau's, and 5 point harnesses...

    Will be the first time on the track in my car where I am not hanging on the wheel just to stay in the seat....

          pedal of death

          ......right now just the floor pan. Looking to get a BMWNA Motorsport M3 item or Hartge.........or Ill fab up a template and have a shop weld up a piece. Its really needed on the track. I run your seat on my pass side. The belts and seats will make a big diff.
          I love sitting down and just driving!

            I have to install my Alpina one still. I am amazed that no one has a cheap copy of this thing out there. Very simple design.

                          it would prob be made of just mild steel, or aluminum. im sure it would be a lot better with a texture, so i guess it would be possible to add like grip tape to it or something similar. im trying to image of a material that would be suitable for the job. The ones in the race cars are just straight aluminum/steel. price wouldnt be that bad, assuming my boss would be cool with me coming in on a saturday or something and making them.

                            seats/harnesses/bar made a big difference for me. but i prefer 6 pts as opposed to nutcrushers. hawhaw. most importantly, you'll realize what you need to do next.
