    After some successful runs at Pocono Raceway, the car looked to be performing quite well. It was time, then to prepare for #Gridlife Track Battle 2 at Summit Point Shenandoah. In order to do this, I flushed the brake fluid, rotated the tires and of course, installed the mandatory tow hooks for the event. In this video, I show you how to install the USR front tow hook as well as the stock rear tow hook.

    A few months ago I got caught in a sand trap on a beach where I live with my previous car, a 2003 Mazda 6, and it was super easy to attach the tow hook for a friend to pull me out with his 4x4. So where to put the tow hook was one of the first questions I asked the salesperson at the Honda dealer when I went to pick up my new Civic Sport Plus, and much to my surprise, he didn't know what to answer. What's more, not even anyone in the dealer's shop knew about it. Thank you for this great video.

    Been viewing your content for a couple years now! Got an 18 FK8 March 1 2018. I do track my car and it's also my daily! Have 74k miles on it! 10 track sessions! Anyways.......I cannot find the video where you replaced the undercarriage shroud with an aluminum one. I'm replacing my oil pan with one with a baffle and going to replace that shroud as well! What's the name of the company?
    LOVE your content and the easy step by step installs! THANKS!
