REVIEW | Raceseng Tug View - tow hook + GoPro mount

I purchased this as part of the introductory @Raceseng group buy a few months back, but got around to using it finally at this past weekend's Buttonwillow event.

Will upload video footage later, but here's install pics:






Not much to say about it other than what people have mentioned regarding GoPro mounts on tow hooks. A few notes:
  • Simplistic design that allows tow functionality along with GoPro camera mount.
  • You can swap this out with the UPM (Universal Plate Mount), and only swap the outer portions to/from the track or whenever the need to shoot video footage arises. This was the main reason for my purchase of this.
  • Obviously, do not buy this one if you don't use a GoPro.

The Red tow hooks are out of stock at this time. They are at the anodizer right now and should be back in stock in 1-2 weeks.
