Hi Guys,

I have been looking at the interest into quality steering racks and i was interested to hear problems with BRT as a company.

I am technical director for Titan Motorsport and Automotive Engineering based in the UK and have been supplying quality race car steering racks for over 30 years.

Please look at website and Quote my name when talking to my dedicated team, these guys will help you out straight away, longest turn around on products if new castings required is 4 weeks.

Cheers

We used Titan racks for years and were always pleased with the adjustment and reliability. I'd certainly recommend them at this level. We moved away from Titan 2 years ago because they would not make one small enough for our car, so we had to get one custom-made from a much more expensive supplier.

Titan have managed to redesign case to allow for less teeth on rack bar meaning that the actual case can now be alot smaller than previous style. We offer full CNC machining facilities to make bespoke steering for prototyping or new car product development.
Nice to hear feedback, good luck guys with your car developments!!! David.

Hi David,

Does your company provide CAD models of the racks you supply? If not what level of technical information do you provide to design your racks into a vehicle?

Cheers

I went through Andy at Titan Motorsports North America and we've always been happy with these racks.
