Made in the USA

It is rare in our industry that products are made in the USA. There is a constant battle in the aftermarket industry about where things are made, and if they are made with integrity or just replica’s of other products. One product we are proud to say is 100% made in the USA are the Status Racing Seats we carry. We bought Status two years ago because of all the possibilities there were with these seats to grow. Here are some facts that you might not know about status.

• Status Racing has two models that are FIA Approved Seats.
• Status Racing seats are 100% made in USA (in Washington to be exact)
• Every seat is custom made to order
• Status Racing can do pretty much any color or fabric combo imaginable (test us!)
• Status Racing has the only online Seat Configurator that you can design your own seat and see it before you buy it.
• They have FIA Approved Harnesses
• Status had a reclinable version (Status Racing Spa Seat)
• All Status Racing seats have racetrack inspired names

People often look at the price tag and think that it’s too much for a seat. To that we say, “You get what you pay for.” We stand by the integrity of Status Racing Seats and what the brand represents. Status Racing seats can be expressions of character, or sturdy enough to hold you, while you’re sideways at top speeds. If you’re looking for a quality, FIA Approved racing seat… Look no further.

If you follow Status at all, you know that they have added some new product this year such as

• Hexagonal Carbon Fiber Backed Seats
• Red Carbon Kevlar Fiber Backed Seats
• Blue Carbon Kevlar Fiber Backed Seats
• Yellow Carbon Kevlar Fiber Backed Seats
• A larger FIA Approved Seat (Ring GT-X)

and there is more to come in 2014!

So if you’re looking to upgrade your interior, change up your weekend racer, or want a seat that can withstand gnarly situations, we urge you to look into Status Racing.

The Next-Level Racing Seat - Blue Carbon Backed Status Racing Seat

If you’re looking to take your interior to the next level, a set of Status Racing Seats will get you there. Yesterday Status Racing released their latest color carbon backed racing seats. You can now get your Status Icon seat with Blue color carbon! Along with the other options of standard carbon fiber, honeycomb carbon and Red carbon, you can basically customize your seat to fit any car or style.

If you saw the Red carbon when it got released the initial pictures of the backing looking bright and vibrant, when they later released pictures the color without the light, had an almost burgundy look to it. The color of the seat reacts to the light on it. The blue carbon seats are similar. You will see in the pictures below that the initial look at the backing in the sun look like a stellar blue color. Then you see them fully manufactured, and the blue looks like a navy blue. Either way, these things look mean! For the first set of blue carbon backed seats they went with the black ultra suede, blue diamond stitching and finished it off, with a filled-in blue Status logo. Check out the pictures below. Let us know what you think of the latest custom, colored carbon backed, racing seat from Status Racing. You can tell us in the comment section below or on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

If you’re looking for a set of racing seats, but the icon version seems a little out of your league. You can get a standard, FIA approved, Ring seat with cloth and FRP backing for $679.00. If you’re looking for the one-of-a-kind seat, but not sure what it would look like? Status Racing pioneered the Icon Racing Seat Configurator that allows you to see the seat before you buy. Configure  your seat today! If you already have seats and are looking for harnesses, they have those too. Check them out here.
