Racing Parts, Harness, and Equipment

Welcome to biermanracing.com! Our web site is dedicated to bringing you the best information possible about racing parts, racing harnesses, and racing equipment. We are passionate about racing, but tired of the high pressure sales pitch that accompanies many racing sites. So here we aim to just deliver information in an unbiased manner. That’s why you’ll find that we don’t endorse and specific product, brand, or team. We’re constantly working to update our site, so if you have any questions or feedback, don’t hesitate to contact us. Who knows, the next time you come back you may find your question published in our FAQ section.

Auto racing has been around just about as long as there have been automobiles. The first auto race was actually a single car event, which was created more to showcase the ability of a car (a novel concept at the time) to reliably get from point A to point B. The driver of the car, one Georges Bouton, was judged to have won the race, seeing as how he managed to finish it.

While that may indeed be the first auto race on record, it hardly holds to the spirit of racing as we know it today. Today’s racing is about precision maneuvering, high quality racing parts, and teamwork. Only one man can drive the race car, but without a highly trained team that flawlessly executes their game plan no driver wins a race.

The first competitive auto race that featured most of the same concepts we use to judge modern races was held in 1895, it was the Paris-Bordeaux trial. All the participants started at the same time, the course was an open road course that was 732 miles long, and the finishing time was a little bit over 2 days for the fastest time. Needless to say, racing has come a long way since that time.

For starters, safety has improved in a number of ways since that first race. Firstly, most professional racing circuits have moved off the roads, with the notable exception of rally racing. Rally racing even features road courses that are closed to the public during the race. Secondly, racing equipment such as helmets, burn suits, and multi-point racing harnesses have become standard in nearly every form of racing. As a result casualties from the sport have dropped precipitously from something that one once seen as a daredevil’s sport. It remains a sport that attracts thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies.

That is not to say that racing is the safest sport out there. A crash at 200mph is still a harrowing experience, as any driver that has lived through one can tell you. Safety racing gear is the only reason drivers are able to live through those crashes to begin with. The requirements to be a racecar driver are excellent reflexes, good judgment and reaction time, and nerves of steel. Without those things, a driver is a danger not only to himself (or herself, thank you Danica Patrick) but to everyone else on the track.
