Five Tips to Keep Your Car’s Racing Parts in Hesperia, CA in Good Condition

Posted by Writer - April 15, 2016 - Racing Parts

As the driver of a racing vehicle, you are aware of the power that comes with such a machine. And it’s because of this power that frequent maintenance—including inspections, cleanings and repairs—is a must, for the sake of performance and safety. These duties are all your responsibility as a racing vehicle owner. Let’s look at five tips to keep your car’s racing parts in Hesperia, CA in good condition:

  • Wash your car: A racing car, whether raced off-road or on an asphalt track, can get just as dirty as a daily driver, if not dirtier. By washing your racing car, you are extending the life of your paint job and rinsing away dirt and other debris that has a tendency to settle in inconvenient areas. But it’s not the debris itself that causes a dirty car the most problems—it is how you clean it. Never use a pressure washer, as this can strip paint, ruin metal and damage delicate internal components, like the engine and electrical channels. Talk to your car care team about products that will keep your car clean without causing damage.
  • Inspect the tires: Like your commuter car, your racing car’s tires need periodic inspections and rotation to perform well. Think about how often and how quickly you’re pushing on the brake and gas pedals to make it around turns or avoid a collision on the track. The simple act of driving at high speeds also causes extra wear on tires. And if you are racing off-road, then there may be bumps, dips, rocks, wood and other obstacles on your course just waiting to poke holes. Inspect treads and entire wheels often for damage or wear.
  • Check brake components: Your car’s break pads, rotors and calipers—in conjunction with other systems—are essential for proper stopping function, which means that, if any of these components malfunction, things can get dangerous. Racers should plan on checking brake pads for wear after each event to avoid setbacks, and even further damage to other parts of the braking system due to completely worn pads scraping down on the rotor. Thin or uneven pads should always be replaced.
  • Check the shock absorbers: There’s a lot of force and pressure during a race, pressure that weighs heavy on your car’s shock absorbers, which is why is it of paramount importance that you check them frequently. Take the time to make sure there are no bends or dents, that the seals are not worn out and that all shocks and pistons are in alignment.
  • Take it to the mechanic: Even though you likely have some automotive maintenance knowledge, it would behoove you to schedule checkups with a professional mechanic who knows their way around a racing car. Because he or she specializes in active racing cars—including knowledge of how they are driven, the importance of maintenance schedules and an understanding of specialty racing parts in Hesperia, CA—you are sure to keep your car in proper working order.
