Race Car Restraint Systems, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

OMP 6pt. Restraint System

As we are preparing an article about the most important safety device of the car, the restraint system, we thought we would solicit information directly from users of the many systems available. Restraint systems are often not very well installed, poorly inspected and many times out dated.

We found an excellent article on written by Ms. Jennifer Bowden on the SFI Foundation website. It is titled ” Seat Belts Essential to Driver Safety”. In her article she points out that age is an important factor in the ability of your restraint system to function properly. Being these are mostly manufactured utilizing Dupont Nylon 6-6 or a similair material, they actually breakdown overtime due to exposure of the elements and chemicals that may come in contact with them. After a big crash, we usually replace them.

This explains the SFI’s 2 year life span on the restraint system. At that time replacement or re-webbing and recertification is required. If you purchase new ones check the date. If they are old, send them back. Before you have a set rewebbed, check the SFI website to make sure that the manufacturer has not had issues that lead to it being decertified. In July of 2009,certain products of a large, very well known and trusted manufacturer were temporarily decertified and as of this writing has not been rescinded.

I would be interested to hear experiences and information regarding driver restraints. Both happy endings and tragic ones as well.

2-ALMS GT2 Class Dodge Viper Comp Coupes + Spares

Eligible for FIA GT3, $200,000 for one car and spares or $315,000 USD Takes All

Both Vipers are build identically, are turnkey and ready to race in the American Le Mans Series, LMS or FIA.

The cars come equipped with a dry sump Comp Coupe motors with upgraded internals from Élan Power, (same builder as Panoz).

The gearbox is a Hollinger sequential box with no lift shift, the shocks are 4 way adjustable Motons, wheels are BBS, and the brakes are custom built in either PFC or Brembo. The stock ECU and wiring has been completely removed and replaced with a custom Motec ECU/ECM with traction control.

The most significant differences in these cars to a standard FIA GT3 car, is eliminating over 250 lbs of useless weight throughout the car, and chassis supports have been added in key places to reduce chassis flex. Also changed the front and rear geometry giving the car a much more solid platform, as well as lowering the overall center of gravity, while at the same time raising the roll centers.

A spare motor would be available at an additional cost of $30K, as well as a spare Hollinger gearbox at $24K.

Performance Racing Group Press Release

GSR Autosport and Performance Racing Group Announce Spec Boxster Racing Partnership




LOS ANGELES, Calif., August 15, 2009 – GSR Autosport and Performance Racing Group have announced a strategic partnership to design, manufacture, and service “Spec Boxster” race cars in the Midwest. The club-level racing series (“SBOX” for PCA, “GTS2” for NASA, and “BSX/BSR” for POC/PRC) pits identically-prepared Porsche roadsters against each other in competitive events on various tracks around the country.


“The partnership between GSR and PRG will not only benefit our two companies, but the Spec Boxster community as a whole. Through our cooperative efforts, it is our intent to promote the national visibility of the growing racing series as it expands across the country, lower the cost of entry for someone new to the sport, offer service outside the traditional dealer network, and increase safety for all drivers,” says Nick Richards, President of GSR Autosport.


GSR Autosport has been involved with the Spec Boxster racing series at the track level for several years. The company currently supports a three-car race team based in Los Angeles that presently holds club-level track records at many local race circuits. When the racing team chose to expand last year, they selected Performance Racing Group to assemble their new race car builds. The decision was based on PRG’s industry reputation, and the fact that they offer more than 100 years of combined experience in the racing industry, including work with organizations such as the IRL, CART, ALMS, HSR, IMSA and SCCA.


The Spec Boxster racing series is one of the fastest growing club-level race classes, with more than one-hundred specially prepared vehicles on various race circuits nationwide. The race vehicles are all based on Porsche’s two-seat mid-engine Boxster sports car built in two different configurations—in general, “BSX” prepared models are legal for street use, while “BSR” vehicles are only designed for the track. “I’ve driven a lot of different race cars over the years and I can honestly say that the Spec Boxster has what it takes to be one of the most popular spec classes ever—the Porsches are fun, agile, predictable and the race cars have a low operating cost,” adds Richards. To meet the demand for competent assembly and maintenance services, GSR Autosport has been working closely with Performance Racing Group since last year. A custom frame-up Spec Boxster “BSR” build, on the assembly line in Indianapolis, is expected to be completed this month.


Headquartered in Los Angeles, GSR Autosport is a multi-facetted professional automotive racing business. Founded and operated by genuine racing enthusiasts, GSR Autosport is a race car manufacturer that designs, develops, and builds turn-key vehicles, competitive automotive components, and race safety equipment in various facilities around the country. GSR Autosport is also the parent company to GoSpecRacing.com, a retail race parts supplier, and SpecBoxster.com, a club-level record-holding Porsche Boxster racing team.


Headquartered in Indianapolis, Performance Racing Group provides products and services to all levels of motorsport competitors, whether first-time novice or a sponsored professional team. Comprehensive racing services include assembly, manufacturing, restoration, and testing of vehicle components and subsystems including one-off concept and show cars or vintage racers. Performance Racing Group also offers temporary staffing, team management, and design services on an as-needed basis. Race clients include IRL, CART, ALMS, HSR, IMSA and SCCA.
