Raceseng | Tug Tow Hook
 
Introducing the Raceseng tow hook named Tug. Aptly named Tug because this tow hook is ready to tug you out of any off track incident. The Tug is constructed of cnc machined 7075 aluminum and all stainless steel hardware. The Tug is a lightweight fully functional track ready tow hook weighing just .6 lbs! The Tug tow hook ring has a spring loaded ball detent system which allows the ring to stay in a horizontal or vertical position.

AVAILABLE NOW

The best looking tow hook IMO.. I love the one with the gopro mount I seen on another vender.. I just can't get over the fact it's 40-50$ in material, and I have a functioning one in the trunk... BUT I want one soooooo very bad.. I have a friend that has a machine shop just haven't spent the time drawing my own up and making me one.. Again the best looking one by far and I love the spring ball indent

Sure thing! We are taking some more product photography now...

Love the avatar pic!

Thanks for the compliments! 7075 is much more expensive then 6061 and not as easy to machine. It is much harder then 6061 material, so we chew up some cutters during production.

The goal of the product was to be a lightweight race ready tow hook. The cool thing is the idea spawned into a gopro mount and our new X Plate (license plate relocator).

We are offering a coupon code to people on the forum, use FRSBRZ001 during the checkout process.

I saw this product in person the other day and it's absolutely a well engineered product. Best looking tow hook on the market and it's functional with the Go-Pro

It is a thing of beauty - which I feel weird saying since it's such a small and relatively inexpensive accessory. But even beyond its racing functionality, it really does add a special something aesthetically to the car. I still really like my rear Cusco hook, but when I saw the RaceSeng one online the other day, made me wish I'd waited to get yours... or maybe sell the Cusco one. :)

This makes me proud to hear! Nothing wrong with calling a tow hook beautiful! Our goal for any product is to create beauty through form and performance through function.

Sell the Cusco one! :) Just kidding, the Cusco hook is a nice piece.
