I have ETrack that came installed on my enclosed trailer. Wood floor with heavy rubber mat permanently installed. So, I’m not much help on the installation process. The tracks are installed to be centered on first gen wheel base, but I’ve used it to transport larger wheel base cars where the tires aren’t centered & it worked fine. To be honest, I don’t use the ETrack system when I’m trailering a car short distances. It’s a PITA due to the limited room between the car & the wall of the trailer. The system really comes in handy for tieing down multiple side-by-sides.

Overall (for me), it would be used a lot more on an open trailer, but I’ll get it on my next enclosed trailer just for its versatility in securing other stuff.

I have Etrack installed in an 8.5 x 24 enclosed CarMate trailer. Plywood floor with permanent rubber coin mat. Track is installed to match track width on 1st gen Camaro. Etrack is installed with 2 1/2" long self-tapping lag screws. Most of the screws just go through the plywood, but you want to make sure some of the screws catch your trailer frame crossmembers for some really solid holding strength.
I love the system though accessing the sides is a little tight, it is better than laying on your back to wrap the axle and front end. I also added front wheel chocks and mput a mark on the leading edge of the trailer ramp that lines up with the track on the drivers side. Once you figure out where your car needs to be to get proper tongue weight, install the chocks and loading becomes a breeze. Just line up to the mark on the ramp and drive in until you hit the chock.
