CMS Performance Harness Bar For C8 Corvette
$795.00
CMS Performance Bolt-In Harness Bar For C8 Corvette
This Harness Bar Fits the Following Cars (does not fit convertible):
Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, C8 (2020+)
Chevrolet Corvette Z06, C8 (2023+)
THE ROLL BAR AS AWESOME AS THE C8 ITSELF!
The C8 Corvette is an incredible, affordable supercar that easily achieves race car performance on track. Maintaining driver safety with that kind of performance wearing nothing but the three-point seat belt is a chore and leaves a lot to be desired in terms of safety. That's where we come in with the CMS Performance C8 Corvette Harness Bar. This provides a rock-solid, high-strength bar to mount shoulder straps for a 4-, 5-, or 6-point racing harness to keep you firmly and safely in your seat.
The CMS Performance C8 Harness Bar is the strongest, most elegantly designed C8 harness bar on the market. It seamlessly integrates into your C8 interior, and we custom powder coat it whatever color you choose, including factory color-matched hues. The CMS C8 bar allows full seat travel while locating your harness shoulder belts at the proper height for maximum on-track safety and security.
Click Here For Installation Instructions
Installation requires no drilling or other modification of the chassis, and only minor modification of your interior trim. You can add our precision pre-cut OEM trim to ease the install, preserving your original trim should you want to put your Corvette back to stock in the future.
PREMIUM QUALITY AND EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE
Every CMS Performance C8 Corvette Harness Bar is designed and hand-crafted in the USA by race chassis fabricators for a perfect fit, beautifully 360o TIG welded for high strength, and fully powder coated in the CMS Performance facility for a brilliant, durable finish. There's no extra charge for color-matched Corvette factory colors, giving your C8 a customized look that will last.
CNC mandrel bent and fully TIG welded from premium Docol R8 Advanced High-Strength Steel (stronger than 4130 CrMo and mild steel) and finished in a rich powder coat color.
Complete, detailed instructions make installation pretty simple (figure about an hour if you're reasonably handy). Installation requires modifying the two lock/seat belt trim panels and the upper trim of your center console. We offer two levels of pre-cut trim to ease installation: first, just the upper console (the most visible and most difficult to trim correctly); second the upper console plus the two lock/seat belt trim panels. Our installation instructions also include cutting templates should you decide to modify your existing trim.
Add optional four-point Schroth Profi II ASM Harnesses and our Harness Install Kit, and you're ready to hit the track. These harnesses were specifically designed for use in street cars with no sub strap pass-through in the seat.

Hose Outlet Diameter: 4"
Color: Carbon Fiber
NACA ducts bring air into a vehicle with a minimal increase in external drag. The purpose of a NACA duct is to increase the flow rate of air while not disturbing boundary layer airflow over your vehicle's exterior. When the cross-sectional flow area of the duct is increased, you decrease the static pressure and make the duct into a vacuum cleaner (without the drag effects of a standard scoop). The reason why the duct is narrow, then suddenly widens in a graceful arc is to increase the cross-sectional area slowly so that airflow doesn t separate and cause turbulence and drag.

Dry carbon fiber for light weight and durability.

Alpinestars Tech-1 Start V2 Karting Shoe FAQs
Are the Tech-1 K Start v2 shoes FIA certified? They are CIK-FIA Level 1 certified, making them legal for most karting competitions worldwide.
What is the difference between the Tech-1 K Start v2 and the Tech-1 K v2? The Start v2 is a more affordable, entry-level option with similar lightweight features but fewer premium materials than the Tech-1 K v2.
Can I use these shoes for indoor karting? Yes, the rubber sole offers excellent grip for both indoor and outdoor kart tracks.
Are these karting shoes suitable for kids or youth racers? They are available in a wide size range and may suit youth drivers depending on sizing; check the Alpinestars size chart for best fit.
Do they run true to size? Generally yes, but racers with wider feet may consider going half a size up for comfort.
Can I use them for sim racing or other motorsports? While designed for kart racing, many drivers use them for sim racing, track days, or even lightweight autocross due to their pedal sensitivity.
What size range is available for the Alpinestars Tech-1K Start V2? The Tech-1K Start V2 is typically available in European sizes 36 to 48. We recommend using the Alpinestars sizing chart to ensure the most accurate and performance-oriented fit.

How do I clean my Tech-1K Start V2 karting shoes? Use a damp cloth and mild soap to clean the exterior by hand. Avoid soaking the shoes or using a washing machine, as it can damage the materials and structure.

FORGELINE GS1R FOR CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8
Originally designed for professional racing teams competing in the IMSA Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge Grand Sport (GS) class, the Forgeline GS1R exemplifies the latest in advanced wheel technology, including one-piece forged monoblock construction, motorsport engineered design, and I-beamed spoke technology. It's engineered to withstand the rigors of top-level endurance racing with a 2100 lb. street tire load rating and exceptional deflection stiffness.
The GS1R features an open-lug center area for up to a pound in additional weight reduction and improved access to the lugs. Combined with a chamfered outer lip, this enables faster wheel changes.
FORGELINE GA3R FOR CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8
Forgeline's 20+ years of experience with teams in virtually every sports car racing organization in the world has been applied to what is perhaps the best three-piece wheel they've ever made: the GA3R.
Their I-beamed spoke technology reduces weight while adding strength and rigidity to the spokes. Hidden titanium assembly hardware gives the GA3R a smooth, clean look and makes wheel cleaning easier. Forgeline's proprietary fast-drying super-strength sealer is highly resistant to leaks and allows for quick, easy repairs.
The GA3R is truly designed for racing. Forged from 6061-T6 aluminum with a heat-treated rim shell, it is engineered to a 2100 lb street tire load rating, giving it the strength and integrity to withstand the massive loads encountered on the stickiest slicks. It's the only wheel actually warranted for racing use.
FORGELINE VX1R FOR CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8
The VX1R is a full track-ready competition wheel equal in strength to Forgeline's famous GA1R and GS1R Competition Series wheels. It features a sharp Y-spoke design (with long spokes that wrap around the lug holes), striking sharp angles, a deep concave profile, and a chamfered outer edge. The Forgeline VX1R is a fully-forged one-piece monoblock wheel utilizing manufacturing technology similar to the very successful GA1R wheel. It is load-rated for motorsports applications.
Beyond just beautiful style, the VX1R is engineered to allow plenty of room for caliper clearance and extreme brake fitment. And the one-piece monoblock forging and computer-simulated FEA design process yield a wheel that is lightweight, stiff, and has excellent fatigue strength.
* Forgeline Competition Series wheels are custom made to order. Lead time is typically three to five weeks from order to shipment.
