Street Car Harness Buyer’s Guide

After publishing our recent Best Racing Harnesses article we were asked about harness options for daily driven street cars that are being equipped for track use. Vehicles which serve a dual purpose as both a track day car and a means of every day transportation have significantly different requirements than vehicles built specifically for racing.

Buyer’s Guide: Driver Cooling Systems

Summer temperatures are already upon us in many parts of the country. Out on the track in full race gear, those high temps translate to a whole lot of heat exposure for drivers – especially those participating in endurance events. Adding a driver cooling system to your racecar – which channels ice water through a specially-designed shirt worn by the driver – is a good idea not only because of the increased comfort for the driver, but also because fatigue caused by that heat can reduce one’s ability to concentrate, in turn affecting not only lap times but safety as well. Here we’ll explain how to go from Point A – no driver cooling system – to Point B – a race-ready system with a cooling shirt.
