About brand
RaceQuip started in 1973 as a small California company focused on one goal: making quality racing safety equipment accessible to grassroots racers. Over the past five decades, they’ve grown into a respected name in motorsports safety gear, but they’ve kept that same practical approach.
The company manufactures helmets, safety harnesses, driving suits, gloves, shoes, window nets, seats, and related accessories. Their product line covers what racers actually need, whether you’re running autocross on weekends or competing in a full season of wheel-to-wheel racing.
What sets RaceQuip apart is their focus on meeting safety standards without the premium pricing. Their helmets carry Snell and SFI certifications, their harnesses meet SFI specs, and their suits are FIA and SFI approved—the same certifications required by racing organizations worldwide. This means you can get properly certified gear without breaking the bank.
RaceQuip products are manufactured with input from racers who understand what works in real-world conditions. They test their equipment extensively to ensure it performs when it matters most. The company maintains relationships with racing organizations and stays current with evolving safety requirements.
Based in Simi Valley, California, RaceQuip supports racers across multiple disciplines—road racing, oval track, drag racing, rally, and karting. Their gear shows up at local tracks and major racing events alike, used by drivers who need dependable protection at reasonable prices.
For racers building their first car or replacing expired safety equipment, RaceQuip offers a solid middle ground: legitimate safety certification, proven performance, and pricing that doesn’t require sponsorship to afford.

FAQ
Most racing organizations require helmets to be within 10 years of their Snell certification date for open-wheel cars, and 15 years for closed cars. However, many series have stricter requirements—some only accept helmets from the two most recent Snell standards. Check your rulebook.
SFI 16.1 harnesses are designed for cars with roll bars or basic roll cages. SFI 16.5 harnesses include additional head and neck restraint compatibility and are built for more serious racing with full cages. The 16.5 standard has stricter testing requirements.
Yes, RaceQuip harnesses with SFI 16.5 certification are compatible with HANS and other head and neck restraint systems. Look for models specifically labeled as H&NR compatible.
SFI requires harnesses to be replaced every 2 years from the manufacture date sewn on the label. This isn’t negotiable at most tracks—expired harnesses won’t pass tech inspection.
RaceQuip suits generally run true to size, but it’s best to measure your chest, waist, inseam, and height against their size chart. Racing suits should fit comfortably over regular clothes since you’ll be wearing them for extended periods.
RaceQuip offers both. Single-layer suits (SFI 3.2A/1) are lighter and less expensive, good for shorter races or club racing. Multi-layer suits (SFI 3.2A/5 or higher) provide better fire protection for longer races or higher-level competition.
Yes, but follow the care instructions carefully. Most suits should be hand washed or machine washed on gentle with mild detergent, then air dried. Never use bleach or fabric softener, and don’t dry clean—it can damage the fire-resistant properties.
RaceQuip warranties vary by product type. Helmets, harnesses, and suits are typically warranted against manufacturing defects for a specific period. Contact RaceQuip directly about specific warranty terms, as safety equipment has different coverage than general products.

Testimonials
Racers across different motorsports disciplines trust RaceQuip gear to keep them safe on track. Read what drivers have to say about the performance, fit, and value of their helmets, harnesses, and safety equipment in real racing conditions.
I’ve been running RaceQuip gear for three seasons in my Spec Miata, and it’s held up great while staying within a club racer’s budget. The helmet, harnesses, and suit all passed tech without issues and have proven reliable through countless track days and wheel-to-wheel racing.
Marcus Sullivan
Switched to a RaceQuip helmet and harness setup last year after my old gear expired, and I’m really happy with how it’s performed. The PRO20 helmet is comfortable for long days at the strip, and the SFI-rated harnesses keep me locked in tight during those high-G launches without any slipping or stretching.
Derek Hoffman
I started rallycross two years ago and outfitted myself completely with RaceQuip gear—helmet, gloves, and suit. Everything has held up through mud, dust, and plenty of hard hits over rough terrain, and the helmet’s visibility is great even when I’m sideways through the corners.
