OK, just placed my order! HRE wheels coming back in this week from a factory refinish, so this is going to be the test! Let's hope this thing fits them. Stay tuned for a review.

If anyone is getting ready for track season and would like to add a Renntorq to your toolbox just let me know.

Thanks,

Default $125 donation for COVID-19 relief with every May purchase

RENNtorq is pleased to announce that for every tool purchase made in the month of May we will be donating $125 in the name of the purchaser to a leading four star charity - Feeding America.

Feeding America is the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization. The Feeding America network provides over 4.3 billion meals annually, helping 1 in 7 Americans facing hunger live more secure and stable lives. Charity Navigator gives them their its highest rating, including four-star ratings for Overall, Financial, and Accountability & Transparency. 98% of all funds donated go directly into programs serving people in need.

https://www.feedingamerica.org/about...eeding-america

Tools are currently being built on a regular basis and shipment is taking between 3-5 days. Thanks to all the Rennlisters for the support so far and I hope we can do some good together this month driving a nice donation to a charity that can use the help right now.

Thanks,

John

A customer recently sent me a note with feedback on the tool that I thought was worth sharing.

"Did a wheel change with the tool and it works so well it makes centerlocks a non-issue. I've despised centerlocks for 10 or so years and now can look forward to wheel changes.

Great Product!"


If you're looking for the quick and painless way to get your track or show wheels on and off we're happy to help.

Thanks,

John

John, I couldn't agree more. I can change a set quickly with the Renntorq tool - it makes it easy and I love having two sets of wheels with different tires to choose from for the street and for the track.

How much is your renntorq CL removal tool? Any Rennlist discounts or group buy?

Thanks.

Lots of interest today.....all requests and PMs returned.

I am building the next group of tools at the end of the week and a few still available.

If anyone is interested in an in-person demo I will be at the Chin Trackdays event at Watkins Glen in about two weeks.

Thanks,

John

I recently bought the Renntorq tool and it's a time saver and the huge plus is the small compact size. It's great to be able to torque the wheels in a matter of minutes and in a similar time to lug bolts. It takes long to lock it the darn spline

Another very happy owner in the UK.

A must have for any GT3 owner who does some work on their own car, after using the Hazet unit on my CGT for years the RENNtorq device is a much more compact and elegant solution.

The RENNtorq tool has turned what was nearly impossible for all but the young/big and strong into a fun operation for crying out loud. It's easier than changing a 5 lug wheel. It's hard to imagine why this couldn't be an OEM tool on Porsches sold with CL hubs. I agree with those that take into account the resale value when buying the new tool. And it's probably going to be hard to find a used Rtorq tool because those that have GT cars will probably continue buying CL wheeled cars knowing wheel changes aren't going to be a problem. John, thanks for doing the work and making these available for us old guys. Doug

I want to chime in on this tool. It makes the CL wheel removal that much easier, and more important I don't need to find somebody to help me hold the brake and wheel while I loosen or tighten the wheels. Also, I don't need to lug my 3/4" torque bar to the track anymore. This tool is compact, easy to use, and a must have for anybody that turns their own wrenches. Approved!
