RaceQuip Black SFI-1 JR. Jacket

The RaceQuip brand, first introduced in 1975, has built a reputation for manufacturing and distributing high-quality auto racing safety equipment. The SFI and FIA-rated auto racing and motorsports safety gear manufactured by RaceQuip is recognized by and designed for use in almost any racing series or sanction.

The RaceQuip Youth single-layer SFI-1 racing jacket is made from Pyrovatex FRC material. It is important to note that while these suits are sometimes referred to as "fireproof" racecar driver's jackets, all auto racing safety gear is actually "fire retardant". Pyrovatex offers the maximum combination of overall flame and heat protection, durability, and comfort. This fire retardant cotton-based (FRC) material is used because it retains the softness and breathability of cotton and will wick away moisture from the skin. Pyrovatex fabric is gentle and non-irritating to even the most sensitive skin, and the treatment process leaves the exterior surface shiny and supple.

The Pyrovatex process combines a chemical agent with the raw cotton fibers to create a bond at the molecular level, ensuring that with proper care, the suit will retain its flame retardant properties beyond the useful life of the garment. All racing suits are assembled with heavy-duty, multi-needle, over-lock safety stitch machines to provide exceptional seam strength.

RaceQuip jackets feature a high-quality, heavy-duty, Nomex-backed brass zipper installed with a double overlap for a more secure front opening. Jackets feature stylish contrasting armband stripes in either black or red, as well as black accents: high back collar, wrist cuffs, and epaulets. These design elements assure that RaceQuip youth driving jackets have a unique look and style.

The pleated back panel provides freedom of movement, making the SFI-1 kid's driver's suit an outstanding value. Designed with younger drivers in mind, the suit is suitable for those who race NHRA Jr. Dragsters, Quarter Midgets, Cage Karts, and other types of competition series that require an SFI Certified driving suit. The jacket exceeds SFI 3.2A/1 specs with a TPP rating of 11 and is available in black with black, pink, or green trim, in sizes from Child XX-Small to Child XX-Large.
