Well, the day I'd need to be rescued from a ditch arrived.

A fresh drop of snow on top of wet long grass had me sliding off the dirt road. No amount of steering input or brake or throttle would stop me from sliding into a ditch. I tried flicking the rear of the car around in a dramatic and fashionable manner, but instead I was alone in the ditch when I realized the 2 tow straps & come-along device are completely useless because there was nothing to anchor to (like a tree or rock).

Fortunate for Wilson and I, a fellow rolled up 2 minutes later in his 4x4 and generously offered to help.

I attached the strap to the Rennbay tow hook as the driver pulled Wilson out of the ditch. No drama. This set up is very good & totally saved my butt today.

Thanks Rennbay!

We use those on our race car as well. Fortunately, we've only had to use them for their intended purpose, which is to strap the car down when towing!

Travis @ Rennbay is a good resource.

glad you got out...
alternative option if you have a strap the right size is to wrap it around the rear suspension carrier.
had to do that on my car for an "extraction" last year.

V2-good idea!

Put the Hakkas back on and you won't need to get pulled out.
