Gary, what's that tow hook bolted/welded to? I've got IC pipine in the way in there, and I'm running the same IC as you, so I'm wondering how you pulled it off.

1. Use a coin to pop out the hole cover in the bumper
2. Take towhook from toolbag in trunk and screw into bumper 3. Do not install FMIC |

I really liked the tow hooks sticking out of one of the Vettes at the autoX last weekend. They were bright green or somthing. Sorry, I know I'm no help.

It will be tough for the Subaru. Even the Nissan Skyline R34 is having a rough time being competitive in the GT class.

I still think it's pretty classic that I didn't even realize this problem with the FMIC. At RFR I made a point to take out the tow hook and put it in the car so I would be ready! (on more than one occasion) |

I think a steel bracket welded to the frame with holes that allow for the mounting of the above pictured tow hook and a slot cut into the bumper should be fairly straightforward. If I knew how to weld, I'd probably just tackle it myself.

If you end up doing any welding yourself, you'll be doing wire-feed MIG. It's the easiest to use & cheapest of the arc welders. Stick is a pain in the ass (at least I thought it was), because you go through electrodes so fast & have to keep changing them out. TIG makes some sweet-ass welds but a machine is going to be at least $1000, where a light-duty 110v MIG is less than $200.

So I'm guessing the team learned alot, and the car survived, so I guess it was a succesful race.
