LOL nice work K man.
I've decided to run R compound only this year. It's Holy Grail time.

Sean will u be running the Poli in the N/A Rotary class this year?

Another request for suggestions. What about tow hooks.
I remember being told the alloy tow hooks are rubbish because they bend under load. I'm not planning to leave the black stuff...but I just want to be sure that I can be towed if required.
Alloy tow hook a la...

OR
Is the factory cast iron tows the better option.


Anything better to consider?

I can definitely tell u that alloy tow hooks do bend under load but they are lighter. If you don't plan on leaving the black stuff both work perfectly well. I bought a ribbon style for this year, hopefully I won't need it but having said that, you could just run out of fuel and need a pull back to the pits...right machine?

Unless weight or looks concern you, I don't think there's anything better than the factory tow hooks. My car came with one and I bought an extra one, so I can screw in to both front and rear. I've used them, too, a couple of times without issue.

Exactly. If you like to use every drop of fuel in the tank and go for those PB's with the lightest possible car, you definitely need a tow hook!

I think a second OEM hook will be the go.
I think I'll hit up the wreckers.

I think it's C3, performance class, same as you perhaps. I emailed Paul last week about the categorizing of last year having me in the NA class. The class and points won't matter to me, going to be a tail ender anyhow. Unless there's a Poli class, should do well in that.

My holy grail would be cracking into the 61s, not sure that's realistic. Mid 62 I'll be chuffed.
