i got my mini stuck in a ditch the night before last and so my dad had to come get me at 3am. when he got there we realised there was no where to tow from!!?? so in the end we tied a strap round the rear wheels but this was less than ideal and i dont want to do it again as im worried about it putting my trackin out. so there must be a tow point but where is it and can i buy one of those little loops to put on the front?? if so where can i get one from??

As above really, and there is nowhere on the rear, i'd go for round part of the subframe in future!

I have had several people from my local club ask me about the towing eyes we have to fit to our Super Mighty min racer. The fronts are as mentioned. The rears which we have to have under racing regs are attached to the wide webbing on the rear subframe. They utilise existing holes and are very strong being made by a local 'ex boilermaker'. He charges £10 for them with pre drilled holes and new fixing bolts.
PM me if interested, I'll see what weight postage is.
