Across all of these series, Amick Racecar Restraints (ARCR) is there — engineering and manufacturing the vehicle component restraints that help keep drivers, fans, and crews safe when things go wrong at speed.
What ARCR Brings to Each Series
Every racing discipline presents different safety challenges, and ARCR builds restraint solutions specific to each one.
NASCAR
ARCR has supplied wheel, hood, deck, flap, camera, and droop tethers to NASCAR since 1999. Products include 8mm Vectran spindle tethers, 6mm Vectran hood and roof flap tethers, under Body panel tethers, defusser tethers and lightweight Zylon Splitter tethers.
IndyCar
Since 2005, ARCR has supplied S.W.E.M.S. (Suspension Wheel/Wing Energy Management Systems) for the Dallara DW-12 and IR-15 chassis. These equalized high-strength Zylon structures, protected in dense Kevlar jackets, represent some of the strongest vehicle Wheel restraints available. ARCR also provides lightweight Under Wing Floor Stays, as cable substitutes, Front Wing tethers, Rear Wing tethers, and Crashbox tether restrains.
NHRA
For drag racing's fastest machines, ARCR manufactures parachute and burst panel tethers. Vectran burst panel tethers with Kevlar protective jackets and PBO Zylon heat kit parachute tethers help contain components on Top Fuel and Funny Car vehicles running over 300 mph.
Sprint Cars
Partnering with C&R Racing in Indianapolis, ARCR designed a complete front solid axle tether system for the World Racing Group's sprint car programs, including radius rod tethers and king pin tethers that work together to secure the front axle and wheel assemblies.
Monster Trucks
ARCR developed specialized braided wire rope tethers for wheel hubs and gearboxes in this series, jacketed with ballistic nylon quick sleeves. These restraints are distributed through Feld Motor Sports as OEM equipment.
Super V8 Australia Racing Series
That Premier Racing Series employs Standard Rear Wheel Tethers and optional custom, Team Specific Front Wheel Tether Systems.
Born from Rigging, Built for Racing
ARCR's restraint products trace their roots to Amick's decades of experience in the industrial rigging industry. The same expertise in high-strength materials, load management, and fabrication that serves heavy industry also drives innovation on the track. It's a combination that's been working since ARCR designed the first Wheel Restraint Tether for NASCAR in 1998.
As the 2026 season picks up speed, ARCR continues to deliver vehicle component restraints across every major racing series in the country. Strength and value — on every track, every race day.
