Anyone rig up F/R tow rings for the track? Where at? Do they weld on or bolt-on?

The stock locations for towing are pretty lame....


Pics?

Import-Slaya

Yup. After an instructor pointed out to me that the stock locations are basically not accessible if you go off track (e.g. sand trap), I installed a set of the Multimatic rings that all the other S197's are running (FR500S, C, etc...). Give Multimatic a call to track down their guy who handles selling them--it was last year and I can't remember the contact info.

They offer two versions-- a bolt-on version and a weld-on version. ~$175 for the full set if I remember correctly. I didn't have a welder last year, so I bought the "bolt-on" version. Trust me, they are NOT a true bolt-on. Just get the weld-on version, remove your bumpers and take them to a welder. It'll be a 15 minute job for both bumpers.

I've attached a pic of when I was mounting them and a pic of the finished product. What I like is that the rear mount is completely covered by your license plate, and the front mount is barely noticable (well, if you are into car shows and stuff, that's a different story...). Once you get to the track, plates off, rings on, and you are ready to go.

Another possible option may be from Rennen Metal (http://www.rennenmetal.com/). Last I heard they were going to make a set just like the Multimatics for half the price. Probably worth giving them a call or emailing them.

Thanks for the info!

Sorry, I hadn't checked here in a little while. I had mine installed by my cage builder. I will post up pics for you shortly. Mine are welded on by the way.
