About Harris Race Radios

#1 for radios for Racing Cars

Harris Race Radios ™ was created out of frustration being unable to purchase or rent good quality Motorsport Radio Communications equipment at reasonable prices. This was very frustrating. Aaron Harris was racing in Endurance motorsport events around the world, Bathurst, Dubai, Barcelona, etc. With a very much mixed bag of poor but expensive radio equipment and overall very poor communication results. Endurance events are race events where reliability and precision of good Radio Communications makes the difference between winning and losing. Using poor preforming equipment was stupid and unacceptable. We formed Harris Race Radios in 2002.

Rex is a Qualified Radio Telecommunications Engineer, Approved Radio Certifier, and Engineer with access to all of the world’s latest technology and the knowledge to know how to use it. We formed Harris Race Radios, and made rapid progress in improving quality, reliability, clarity, etc. at reasonable prices. Harris Race Radios™ have worked with world leading Radio Suppliers to develop special firmware to mitigate the effects of high speeds, Doppler and picket fence effects, high noise, high EMF interference, peculiar to modern motorsport communication; we use these firmware systems exclusively on all of our radios.

Harris Race Radios™ in conjunction with Motorsport New Zealand set up Race Radio™ this is a system where race control officials can communicate directly with Race Teams.

Harris Race Radios™ as approved by Radio Spectrum Management Radio Certifiers (ARC) and Engineers (ARE) are able to craft NZ and Australian Radio Licenses, and keep a data base of radio frequencies used for motorsport. Harris Race Radios™ has greatly simplified the gaining of the correct radio licenses. This has resulted in a huge reduction in cross channel interference and overall quality improvement.

• We supply new Parts to work even better with the new Digital platform.

About Harris Race Radios

It quickly became apparent that the new Motorola Motorsport Digital radio equipment was showing up the deficiencies in all of the other associated equipment. Harris Race Radios™ developed new Wiring looms, Aerials, Helmet kits, Cabling, Earpieces, PTT. Even the Radio Box, that holds the radio in the car, was redeveloped improving the performance.

• We are always improving, always getting better.
• As the speeds of the cars got even higher. The likes of TRS and GT cars, the Motorsport Communications required even higher standards. Showing up the short comings of the standard helmet kits and wiring harnesses. Harris Race Radios™ “Professional series” of equipment developed by Harris Race Radios™. In conjunction with our suppliers. Again Professional equipment at reasonable prices.

• Helmet compatibility with radio systems. It became evident to Harris Race Radios™ that some systems worked better than others. The difference was the type of helmet being used. Helmets can badly distort the sound waves going to the microphone. Others don’t allow the mic to be placed correctly in the Racing Helmet. Harris Race Radios™ started selling Helmets that are compatible with Radio systems. Roux Helmets USA and Stilo Helmets.
