What are you guys doing for a front tow hook. I know that one can pull the car from the roll cage but it seems like a traditional front tow hook would be a better solution. I’m curious how tech is going to feel about it when I try and get my logbook. Hopefully they don’t care it’s not on the car. Anyway. What if anything is anyone doing?

It would be great to have a front tow hook — if nothing else to make winching on to trailer easier! With my Futura trailer/winch configuration the winch cable presses against the nose as the car nears the front of the trailer.

I do like the idea and I do believe it would be possible.... only issue is the the simplicity of taking the front body panel off and putting it on quickly is eliminated by having a tow hook which is mounted to the chassis sticking out of the front.

Def. think it's possible but can't think of an easy solution that will not require additional 3-4 min. of removing tow hook prior to removing front body panel.

I remove my front panels at least 5-10 times during a race weekend so adding 3-4 min. everytime to remove & then to add the tow-hook adds up.
