Summarize

Not every race team has the luxury of a pantechnicon transporter to cart all its equipment and cars or bikes to racetracks around the country. Many competitors tow their own race machines across the length and breadth of the land. Others will send the vehicle on a truck. all of which means there simply isn’t enough space to pack in a huge tool trolley and the rest.

That is precisely why Tork Craft’s fully equipped compact cantilever toolbox is the choice of racing champions. Perfect for the race team that needs it all without the hassles of a bulky and bothersome to move cabinet, Tork Craft’s steel constructed 172-piece 6-tray cantilever Mechanic’s Tool Box comes fully equipped to solve any race mechanic’s dilemma. 

Its 172 tool pieces will cover any task that comes up in the racing pit box. Lockable and spacious with well-organized plastic trays to provide a perfect packing place for each component, the box conveniently closes up to a compact and easy to transport and store unit in an instant. And that’s why it is the toolbox of choice for Tork Craft’s pro race drivers and riders.

Giordano Lupini is causing a stir in CompCare Polo Cup aboard his Tork Craft Volkswagen. But rather than opting for a cumbersome cabinet, Gio and his team only travel with Tork Craft’s compact 172 piece cantilever toolbox. The box stows into a convenient size that’s easy to transport, but it folds open to provide the team with an easily accessible array of splendid Tork Craft tools ready for any trackside eventuality. 

“Tork Craft’s compact cantilever toolbox comes packed full of high-quality tools ready to help us solve any crises or problems that may arise during a race weekend,” Giordano points out. “Our Tork Craft toolbox has a cantilever mechanism that is also far sturdier than other toolboxes I’ve worked with, making it perfect for the high action environment we tend to deal with on race weekends.”

The Tork Craft cantilever toolbox‘s compact and convenient size was a primary consideration in Lupini’s choice. His team either tows the Tork Craft Polo to races, or the car is sent on a regular car transporter with all its kit packed inside. Same goes for the various members of the Franchise Co Tork Craft Honda Wing Cross Country race team. Space in their race van is each rider’s primary concern. But they still need a full tool kit trackside.

“I absolutely love my Tork Craft toolbox,” South African Cross Country frontrunner Mike Pentecost explained shortly after winning OR1 in the Vryburg Desert Race on his Franchise Co Tork Craft Honda CRF 450 X. “Extremely compact and versatile, it’s perfect for racing and the exceptional quality tools are amazing to work with. You will never catch me at the track without my Tork Craft set-up in my van!”

Franchise Co Tork Craft Honda CRF 250 X teammate Haydn Cole is a frontrunner and race winner in the National OR3 Championship: “My Tork Craft toolbox may be compact and easy to transport, but it also has everything you can possibly need in it to work on my bike,” Haydn explained. “It is packed with the best quality tools money can buy at the price, and I know that their Tork Craft tool box is also the most important piece of kit in all my teammates’ race vans.”

Tork Craft’s compact and secure lockable steel construction six tray cantilever tool box has an easy to carry double handle. Yet it opens up to provide a spacious and comfortable tool centre. Its multi-level design comprises five folding cantilever compartments plus a removable tray. Each with a plastic insert to provide a perfect home for every one of its 172 components.

The kit includes a full set of exceptional quality lifetime guaranteed Tork Craft chrome vanadium utensils.
