Essential Paddock Equipment for Endurance Racing
Essential Paddock Equipment for Endurance Racing
Endurance racing demands more than just stamina on the track — it’s a logistical grind in the paddock too. Whether you're running a single-car team or a full factory outfit, your setup needs to be efficient, durable, and race-ready at a moment’s notice.
At Gala Performance, we’ve supplied paddock gear to teams at Le Mans, Silverstone, Spa, and beyond. Here's a breakdown of the essential equipment we recommend for endurance events — the gear that helps keep your race weekend running like clockwork.
Heavy Duty Pop-Up Awnings
Every endurance team needs reliable shelter for the paddock. Our Pro 40, Pro 50, and Pro 60 range of pop-up awnings are designed for motorsport, offering fast deployment, outstanding durability, and weatherproof protection.
Why they're essential:
Protect cars, tools, and personnel from the elements
Quick to erect, even with a small team
Available in multiple sizes (3m x 3m up to 6m x 6m)
Fully brandable for team or sponsor visibility
Custom Printed Walls and Branding Packages
Visibility matters. A clean, branded paddock setup adds professionalism and attracts attention. Our printed gazebo walls, feather flags, and PVC banners help your team look the part, even during night stints.
What we offer:
Full-colour dye-sublimated prints
Sponsor-friendly backdrops
Easily interchangeable wall panels
Swisstrax Modular Flooring
Racing in all weathers means dealing with mud, gravel, and oil. Swisstrax modular tiles offer a clean, professional surface that stays grippy under pressure — even during a 24-hour push.
Benefits:
Snap-together system, no tools required
Resistant to fuels, fluids, and heavy loads
Used by race teams and paddock managers across Europe
Pit Perches
Designed in-house by Gala Performance, our Pop-Up Pit Perch is the practical alternative to fixed, overpriced setups. It’s built for tight pit lanes and comes fully loaded with team comms and strategy features.
Includes:
500gsm black PVC covers (printable)
Electrical outputs and LED strip lighting
Heavy-duty table with monitor mounts
Pockets for race number boards
Ballast and Anchorage
Safety first. Whether you’re racing in Spa, Snetterton or Sebring, proper anchorage is non-negotiable. We supply weight bags, leg weights, and tie-downs to keep your paddock setup secure in all conditions.
Popular options:
Steel leg weights (13.5kg)
Strap kits and pegs
PVC sandbag-style ballast bags
