This is the Sparco Trackside Tool Roll, it was designed as an all-in-one unit that you can leave in your trunk for when it’s needed, or take with you to track days in case your car needs some fettling between sessions.
The tool roll itself is made from high-quality Cordura nylon to ensure toughness, it also helps keep your tools well-organized and it keeps them rattle free – unlike a more traditional toolbox.
Only professional-grade BoxoUSA tools are used, and they all come with a lifetime warranty. Sparco explains that the tools were each hand-picked by real enthusiasts to tackle most jobs at the track or in your garage.
History Speedrun: Sparco
Sparco was founded in 1977 in Turin, Italy, by racing enthusiasts Enrico Glorioso and Antonio Parisi with the primary goal of improving safety for racing drivers.
At a time when fire-related injuries were still common in motorsport (and often fatal), the company’s first major innovation came in 1978 with a fireproof racing suit certified to withstand 11 seconds of flame exposure – an industry first that set new FIA standards.
From there, Sparco expanded rapidly, introducing competition seats, harnesses, and steering wheels throughout the 1980s. The brand’s gear soon appeared across Formula 1, rally, and endurance racing, worn by world champions and factory teams alike.
By the 1990s, Sparco had become a leading supplier of safety gear and other components for both race and road cars, developing carbon fiber seats and collaborating with marques including Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Bugatti.
Now headquartered in Volpiano, near Turin, Sparco remains privately owned and operates globally, producing driver equipment, OEM automotive components, and even racing sim gear. Its 2017 acquisition of US brands Impact and MasterCraft Safety took some by surprise, but they helped further establish its footprint in the United States.
