Chillout Systems IceBox Cooler System 17L with battery display, cooling pump, and connector assembly shown.
Chillout Systems Chillout Systems IceBox Cooler System 17L from $550.00
Chillout Systems IceBox Driver Cooler System Pre-Order Special: FREE 6' Cooling Hose ($170 value) Pre-Order shipping July- August 2026 The Chillout Systems IceBox Driver Cooler System is a battery-powered compact, ice-based driver cooling system designed for racing, endurance driving, track days, and high-heat motorsport environments. The IceBox is the first ice-based driver cooling system with a patent-pending Passive Temperature Control system, giving drivers the ability to adjust cooling output anywhere between 45°F and 65°F. This controlled cooling range helps keep drivers comfortable longer, reduces unnecessary over-cooling, and can extend ice life up to 4x longer than other obsolete ice-based coolers. A New Standard for Motorsport Driver Cooling The Chillout Systems IceBox is disrupting the motorsport cooling category by solving the biggest issues found in the antiquated ice-based systems: cold shock, bulky cooler size, inconsistent cooling output, and ice life of under an hour. Instead of circulating ice-cold water with no real temperature control, the IceBox delivers smooth, adjustable cooling that keeps the driver sharp and comfortable for up to three hours during demanding sessions and enduros.  All other ice-based driver cooling systems are now obsolete.   Compared to obsolete older style ice cooling systems, the IceBox offers a more refined driver-cooling experience at a price anyone can afford. Its Passive Temperature Control system helps prevent the numbing cold-water shock that can restrict blood flow, leading to discomfort and poor circulation, while Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel technology helps lock in the cold for longer cooling performance.  Battery power eliminates the need for 12v wiring and switches keeping your cockpit clean and orderly.  The compact size and soft-sided construction reduces the footprint needed and offers the lowest weight option on the planet to save you tenths during your next lap. Built for Endurance Racing In endurance racing, driver comfort, quick service, and equipment flexibility can mean the difference between a podium finish and a DNF. The Chillout Systems IceBox is compact enough for race car installation and can be managed, serviced, and swapped during long race weekends. Teams can choose the version that best fits their installation needs: with the aluminum tray/baseplate for secure mounting or without the tray for the lightest possible setup. Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel Technology At the core of the IceBox is Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel technology, also known as VIP insulation. This is the same award-winning insulation technology used in aerospace and medical applications. VIP insulation uses ultra-thin vacuum-sealed panels to dramatically reduce heat transfer, helping keep the ice and water colder for longer. Panasonic VIP insulation delivers 13x better thermal insulation than traditional foam. Because the panels are ultra-thin, the IceBox preserves a full 17 liters of usable capacity without the bulk of conventional ice coolers. Passive Temperature Control If you have used traditional ice-based coolers before, the difference is immediate. Instead of numbing cold water that shocks the skin and restricts circulation, the IceBox delivers smooth, controlled cooling that can be adjusted to where the driver’s body performs best. Two key technologies make this possible: Panasonic VIP insulation locks the cold in with 13x the thermal performance of foam, while patent-pending Passive Temperature Control lets the driver dial cooling output between 45°F and 65°F. Together, they help prevent unnecessary over-cooling, extend ice life, and deliver race-ready cooling performance in harsh cockpit conditions. Chillout IceBox Key Features 17-liter ice-based driver cooling system Internal volume approximately 16.6 liters Patent-pending Passive Temperature Control Adjustable coolant range from 45°F to 65°F Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel technology 13x more thermally efficient than traditional foam insulation 1.8 L/min, 12V circulation pump performance 10,000 mAh rechargeable battery 3+ hour runtime LCD battery life display USB-C charging Optional 12V hardwire cord compatibility, sold separately Available with or without aluminum tray/baseplate With Tray vs Without Tray The Chillout Systems IceBox is available in two configurations: With Tray/Baseplate: Includes aluminum tray/baseplate, battery, and straps for a more secure motorsport installation. Weight is approximately 10.62 lb. Without Tray/Baseplate: Lightweight configuration with battery and straps for teams looking for the most compact and lightweight setup. Weight is approximately 8.79 lb. The tray version is ideal for permanent race car installation where the cooler needs to remain secure during hard driving, pit stops, and driver changes. The no-tray version is ideal for teams that want the lightest possible IceBox setup or already have their own mounting solution. Chillout IceBox Specifications Capacity: 17 liters Internal Volume: Approximately 16.6 liters Coolant Range: Adjustable 45°F to 65°F Dimensions: 15.5 in L × 13.25 in H × 10.5 in W Pump Performance: 1.8 L/min, 12V circulation Battery: 10,000 mAh rechargeable Runtime: 3+ hours Charging: USB-C with LCD battery life display Power Options: Rechargeable battery or optional 12V hardwire cord, sold separately Insulation: Panasonic Vacuum Insulation Panel technology Weight With Tray/Baseplate: 10.62 lb with battery, tray, and straps Weight Without Tray/Baseplate: 8.79 lb with battery and straps Why Choose the Chillout Systems IceBox? The Chillout Systems IceBox is designed for drivers and teams who need serious cooling performance without unnecessary bulk, cold shock, or discomfort. With adjustable Passive Temperature Control, Panasonic VIP insulation, a rechargeable battery, compact 17-liter capacity, and tray or no-tray configuration options, the IceBox delivers controlled driver cooling for demanding motorsport conditions. Whether used for track days, sprint racing, endurance racing, or high-temperature cockpit environments, the Chillout IceBox gives drivers and teams a more advanced alternative to traditional ice-based cooling systems.

Girodisc A1-319 front rotors for Corvette C8 Z06 with OEM steel rotors from
GiroDisc Racing Brakes & Technologies C8 Corvette Z06 Girodisc A1-319 Front Brake Rotors (OEM Steel Rotors) $1,550.00
C8 Corvette Z06 Girodisc A1-319 Front Brake Rotors (OEM Steel Rotors) Fitment: Chevrolet Corvette C8 Z06 Front with Factory Cast Iron Rotors For the Corvette C8 Z06 with factory Z07 carbon ceramic rotors, see Girodisc A1-320. This Girodisc two-piece floating rotor system is a direct replacement for the OEM cast iron brake rotors on the C8 Z06 Corvette. The Girodisc two-piece rotors will bolt directly to the C8 Z06 and work perfectly with OEM calipers. By upgrading your C8 Z06 brakes to these lightweight, high-performance replacements -- as opposed to a big brake kit -- your factory brake bias is maintained as well as your ABS efficiency. These Girodisc rotors are lighter than OEM pieces, reducing rotational and unsprung mass for quicker acceleration, sharper suspension response, and better brake feel. When used with Pagid or PFC high-performance brake pads and RF1 racing brake fluid, this Girodisc rotor system gives you an amazing solution to overheating, cracking and warping rotors. The central hat section of the disc is made from 6061-T6 aircraft specification aluminum. The rotor itself is manufactured from a proprietary cast iron, domestically sourced and made to the same specification used by professional racing organizations. The rotor's curved vane design was developed in racing and acts as a centrifugal pump to force cooling air through the disc. The rotor and hat are joined by a floating mount system utilizing 8-10 high strength alloy steel drive pins manufactured by Girodisc in-house, then cadmium plated for corrosion resistance. The alloy drive pins transfer breaking load while maintaining axial and radial float between the disc rotor and hat. The pins are secured by Grade-12 cap screws and hardened washers, mounted with anti-noise spring washers to allow for heat expansion while eliminating the rattle and noise typically associated with floating rotors. The two-piece Girodisc design allows for rotor-ring replacement as well, minimizing future replacement costs while delivering outstanding performance and cooling. Priced/sold per pair. Features: • Built for racing reliability and consistent performance • Compatible with demanding track environments • Designed for perfect fit and easy installation FAQs: Is this part track-proven? Yes, it has been tested extensively under racing conditions. Does it require professional installation? While not required, professional installation is recommended for best performance. Will this fit my vehicle? Please refer to the fitment guide or contact us to confirm compatibility. Can I return this if it doesn’t fit? Yes, as long as it’s unused and in original packaging.
CMS Performance Roll Bar for Mustang Dark Horse (2024+)
CMS Performance CMS Performance Roll Bar for Mustang Dark Horse (2024+) $1,895.00
CMS Performance Roll Bar for the Mustang Dark Horse (2024+) THE BEST ROLL BAR ON EARTH IN FORD'S TRACK MONSTER Fits all 2024+ S650 Mustang Coupes The CMS Performance Roll Bar is the strongest, safest, and most beautifully constructed roll bar on the market for the Dark Horse. In designing our roll bar, safety, strength, and structural integrity were our primary goals. That's why it is fully TIG welded from ultra-strong Docol R8 Advanced High-Strength Steel sized 1.75" diam x .095" wall, vs. the mild-steel tubing other companies use. Docol R8 is 30-35% stronger than DOM mild steel and even 10-15% stronger than 4130 CrMo steel. This allows CMS Performance to design a roll bar that is stronger and lighter weight. Precision CNC machined interlocking roll bar clamps, made to our specifications in the USA, make joining the main hoop and kickers easier during installation while giving the CMS Performance roll bar a premium, finished look. Adding an optional Shrader Rear Seat Delete Kit gives your roll bar installation a from-the-factory OEM look. AMERICAN MADE SAFETY FOR AN AMERICAN ICON Let's face it, safety is the primary reason to install a roll bar in your Dark Horse. So the CMS Performance Shelby Roll Bar is designed to place your harness shoulder straps at both the proper angle (0° to -20°) and distance to the driver.  The rear kickers bolt to a strong existing bulkhead, requiring no reinforcement plates beneath the floor pan. Our use of state-of-the-art Docol ultra-high-strength-steel tubing throughout allows us to keep the driver's rear view unobstructed by diagonal braces, which also keeps weight down. Every detail is engineered with safety and structural integrity as our primary goal. PRECISION CRAFTED AND CUSTOM FINISHED IN OEM COLORS The other reason to install a roll bar is because it really complements the aggressive, race-inspired styling of the S650 Dark Horse. We're gear heads, we get that. So each bar is crafted by hand by master fabricators, 360o TIG welded for the ultimate in strength and durability, and then custom powder coated in our facility (at no extra charge). We've color-matched powder to most of Ford's factory paint colors for a truly customized look1, or you can choose from thousands of custom colors and finishes like the amazing Superchrome, giving your Shelby a personalized look that will last. Going from raw Docol tube stock to a gleaming finish, every roll bar is handcrafted by our most experienced cage- and race car builders. Nothing is left to chance. The CMS roll bar is designed to give you an unobstructed view through your rear window. None of your plastic interior trim needs to be removed or cut, just a little carpet that is hidden away. So if you ever need to put your car back to stock, it will look as though the roll bar was never there.

Key Features FIA 8855-1999 homologated for competition use Available in fiberglass or carbon fiber shell construction Ergonomic design with removable padded inserts Premium Alcantara or leather upholstery Optimized shoulder harness slots for proper belt routing Compatible with 4, 5, and 6-point racing harnesses Side-mount configuration (290mm bolt spacing) Lower side bolsters for improved cockpit access HANS/FHR device compatible Specifications Recommended Waist Size: 29" – 36" Shell Material: Fiberglass or Carbon Fiber Weight: Approx. 22 lbs (fiberglass version) Harness Compatibility: 4, 5, 6-point Mount Type: Side mount Mounting Torque: 22 lb-ft.

It offers the safety, fitment flexibility, and ergonomic design needed for modern performance builds—without the compromises of ultra-aggressive race shells.
