What's the difference between the two? The factory tow hooks work well...

Its a Race hook to tow the car off the track. They go front and back and theres an extension for the Mazda Speed Kit to .. I put them on my car for track days. Your car came with the ones they used to tie it down in shipping. Not as big and not Red..Its red to keep you from Clocking your Shin.. ! also why it folds..

Anyone know why the Rx8 manual states that using the tow hooks (stock ones) to tow the car is not recommended and would damage the bumper? It indicates that the hooks are for tie down purposes only.

I need these for track days still have 'em?

These threads make me think that I should just cancel my order. Shouldn't take 4 days to get back to me after I order with invoice choice about price and shipping. It's looking like a damn hassle to find anyone that can ship to Norway and have a good selection. Guess I'm too used to great service coming from the Miata community.

Thew contacted me that he has received a message and he is no longer involved with day to day company operations.

Please direct all PMs to me.
Thanks!

Have you completed your office move and is there a phone # that's up and running to take orders?
