Racing Neck Brace Supports & Restraints

A drag racing neck brace limits the movement of the helmet by the installation of it between the helmet and the shoulders, as well as around the neck. This reduces the bending of the neck and movement of the head while worn just as a sport harness supports and restrains the body. When installed it helps to protect your neck from serious injury that would result without a neck brace.

The type of neck brace for racing needed depends on the racing class you will be participating in. The rulebook will specify which neck brace is required; typically, an SFI approved and tested part.

There are many options to buy racing neck braces online, but only one clear destination. With over 60 years in the business, JEGS has been selling performance parts and safe racing equipment for a long time, offering neck braces at competitive prices, and shipping in-stock items fast, often the same day.

The loop in a helmet restraint for circle track racing attaches by sliding your arm through It up to the armpit. The release hook on the other end attaches to the D-ring on the side of the helmet. Adjustment is then made to help support the helmet during high G force corning. Having this type of restraint typically improves concentration and awareness as there is less fatigue created from mentally and physically keeping the head upright.

It is highly recommended to purchase a race helmet with the helmet anchor attachments already installed or to ship the helmet to the manufacturer to have anchors professionally installed. If neither of these options is possible, an anchor kit is required. You need to confirm the anchor kit matches the restraints, as different connections are available. Depending on the kit, the instructions will vary. However, in general, a hole will be drilled on each side of the helmet, to the specifications of the anchor kit manufacturer, included in the instructions. The anchors are attached with helmet hardware between the helmet padding and the inside of the helmet. Replacement tethers are then fitted to make sure the connection is secure.
