    Default SVRA towing notation/ arrow

    ok, so over the last 20 yrs, I've been towed back to the pits when needed by my roll bar, but now SVRA gives me a "TOW" arrow sticker and tells me to point it at something other than the roll bar- what is best thing to do here, I'm just getting back in and finding new odd rules?
    thanks

    WTF? Ask them how they tow the vintage F1 cars, the Indy cars, the indylights cars, the Atlantic cars…..

    Put a piece of tape with the word TOW on it on one front and one rear lower A-arm.
    Go through annual tech and get your sticker for the year.

    Then............. [emoji6]

    Default lower A arm

    i figured lower A arms best "plan B", would you try to zip tie or somehow attach a tow strap to the arm to try to prevent damage from the tow vehicle? Was watching cranes pick F1 cars up by the roll bar on tv Sunday thinking this is pretty stupid...

    Put the tow sticker on the front of your tow vehicle and point it someplace else rather than SVRA......
