Wondering that the woman was saying to the driver. She seemed very emphatic. Waving her finger and all.

I don't know a whole lot about cars sou would someone explain.

1. Why is it being towed?

2. Is there a good chassis connection beneath the hood right there?

3. What are the fixtures next to the front air dam? Are those related to down-force characteristics or for mounting something?

@patmo141 1. a lot of the time a car built for racing has an extreme cam and exotic gear ratio's that make it very difficult to drive at slow speed, and save the expensive race fuel.

2. its connected to the frame/rollcage of the car and it is very strong

3. and those fixtures are for downforce but they do more then your usual air dam it directs the air along the car increasing turn in stability
