It follows the poser-sport ethos you were talking about. If this car were actually on a track, the tow strap would be required by the track safety rules. Therefore it needs to be there "because racecar".

I own this tool and works well.
The unit is programmed to Porsche Spec for their Center Lock requirements.

From the looks of this picture, it may be a different interface and would need to have it programmed into the Hytorq torque multiplier.

I believe obsessed garage sells it pre-programmed already. They have a demonstration video showing it. For the longest time I wanted a 991.2 C2GTS, and I was looking to buy this tool alongside with the gts purchase. Gave up on that after driving a 991.2 C2S tho, LOL.

Yes, That is correct. I purchased the unit from them. I have used this brand before when I worked in the industrial maintenance field with millwrights. Used it to change summer to winter wheels\tires.
