UK site lists the M2
https://www.deadweightindustries.co....ucts/touge-max Battery +3D Printed baseplate + shipping will cost about $900US Unsure if that is with VAT. Could be a little cheaper since US wouldn't pay the VAT tax. (I think)

I got the car mostly for track use, but want to make sure if I want to, I can still drive it around occasionally or to the track. AP Racing brake kit going on it as well. Look forward to your pictures. Did you go with the Falline Rollcage? It is what I have as it was the only one I identified with a proper closed out for the rear seats, just hoping I can do an still and avoid destroying the rear carpets. Did you consider the BK Mounts for the seats? I read from someone on the forum, those would allow you to maintain the original OEM sliders (so no extra drilling). Lastly did you needed to code the car once you remove the seats? Once again thank you.. |

I like the fact my factory side bolsters stayed in. Sidenote: (I have a LTW modified by PTG from new and they built a rear seat delete kit and kept the side bolsters in. The rear seat delete was added to the LTW so you could drive the car to the track with 4 wheels inside As far as the overall build of the LTW by PTG racing back in 1995, it's on a whole nother level. In todays money I would have had to have spent about $150,000 in mods to match the LTW. Anyhow, that car is a whole nother story for another time) I considered the Bray sliders and actually had them on order but cancelled them. Most everyone has those and frankly I wanted something different..and I think mine sit lower than those also. Just guessing but I do know I'm very pleased with my new seating position. Yes we coded the car for the airbag light and chime for when we use the 6 point harnesses. I kept my 3 points in for street use as well.

I think upgrading a CS to a CSR Light is the way to go. You get the cooler hood, and aren't stuck with the air lift trunk. You also get carbon instead of plastic diffusers, which cost nearly the same anyway to replace. I want to get the CSR door panels, wing, the M Perf carbon trunk, carbon fenders and a cage / rear seat delete. Maybe the oil cooler protector and lexan window with the differential cooler.

Diff cooler would be so cool in the street car. Although a bit overkill for 30 min sessions
And you get 110 hp more I've got about the same into the M2 CS now as I did the M2 CSR. Only issue is resale value. I sold the CSR for $150k in 7 days. Won't be getting that for my modded M2 CS.

When I bought the M2 CS I didn't know how I wanted to use it but I knew I loved it. I bought the CSR and had a great 2021 season with it. At the end of the season I knew I wanted to HPDE a street car and not HPDE a race car. So overkill for my needs and I had already decided I don't have the time to go racing. The M2 CS has great bones, I just needed to change a few things to make it track worthy for my standards. So now I have a car my son and I can take on local trips to the golf course or wherever AND I have car I can track...hopefully within seconds of the race car at VIR. It's a win win for me. When I'm done with fun, I revert the car back to stock, sell off the parts and send the car on it's way. But honestly I can see this track car taking me into 2030 and beyond. Heck the 1988 E30 M3 I tracked up until 2 years ago. M2 CS will be fun and capable on the track for many years to come. Sorry for the long response, hope it answered your question.

I have been tracking my 1M for years. I am still trying to decide if the CS will move into that role eventually.

Is there one that fits the CS now? The Turner one certainly didn't.

We kept the seatbelt light when using the harnesses though.
