    That's what I thought, too- that's why I clicked on it, to get a laugh. :D

    Yeah, they're actually not bad for towing small things in a pinch. :D And I bet me and Robert will probably end up using it to tow something again in the future.

    It's a simple Tow Hook.

    In some cases that part is required for race cars and allows easier access to have a towing vehicle pull the race car out of the way in case the car has a mechanical problem. The bright colors allow easy finding of the tow hook.

    Rice rockets have taken it to the next level and put it on for show, I doubt they have any load rating on them or have some kind of disclaimer so the company doesn't get sued.
