Is there somebody out there ,whom installed a rear tow hook for track use?? please send some pictures, my car has the bumper delete kit
 
I think Ed Sims has a rear tow hook that Shadowman made for him - set up for a bumper delete system. PM Ed or Shadowman.
 
I don't have pics but we installed our bumper delete screen and frame rails on Ed's car at Rally 2 in CA. We took an original frame, modified it for the bumper delete, welded a plate into the LR frame rail section and threaded it for a large eyelet that can be installed in case of emergency. We couldn't use the same eyelet as the front because that one is a reverse thread. On our bumper delete screen we put a hole in it similar to the front screen on the early 2005 cars. Maybe Ed can post a pic of what we did back in CA.
 
Here are a couple of pics from Barrett Jackson last year on a car with a bumper:ack I'm not so sure this is a recommendation though:frown

Ed's Hook by the GT Guys

Ed's wheels stopped spinning at SAAC 35 long enough for me to get this picture of his rear tow hook:

Here is the most recent thread on GT tow hooks with the most recent photo of my rear tow hook. It was originally installed by the GT Guys but I had it redone (repositioned & indexed) & powder coated by Shadowman when he redid the rear screen for my high-exit exhaust.

Anyone done a snow plough yet? :)
 
Hmmm.....what about a hitch rack for a bike? There have been so many times that I have wanted to have both my GT present and my bicycle....either road or mountain...but cannot do it!

front splitter works good for moving snow out of the way.
