Shock rebuilding, custom tuning and suspension support backed by decades of hands-on racing experience.
When it comes to circle track racing, every turn matters. The right shock package does more than control how the car feels. It influences weight transfer, tire contact and how consistently the car responds throughout a run.
Elite Shock Services works with circle-track racers who need routine shock service, changes to an existing setup or a new solution built around their application. We take the time to understand your chassis, class, track conditions and feedback from behind the wheel before recommending the next step.
With more than four decades of combined industry experience and deep roots in circle-track racing, Elite Shock Services brings firsthand racing experience and product knowledge to every conversation.
Our love for circle track racing runs deep. Carter Gerlach grew up racing in Minnesota and has worked with Formula 1 and NASCAR racers nationwide.
That background helps us look beyond a part number or generic baseline. We consider how the shock works with the rest of the car and how changes may affect the way it responds on the track.
Our approach is practical and measurement-driven: understand the problem, evaluate the current setup and make informed adjustments based on the car, driver and racing conditions.
From routine rebuilds to fully customized shock packages, Elite provides the service, testing and setup support racers need to improve consistency and control. We even provide full installation services at our local shop in Ramsey, MN.
