RCI Racing Fuel Cell
RCI Racing Fuel Cells: Purpose-Built for the Track
When every second on the track counts, your fuel system needs to be as reliable as your engine. RCI Racing — short for Racer's Choice Inc. — has spent over 30 years engineering safety products specifically for competition use, and their fuel cells stand as one of the brand's most trusted product lines. Built to endure the demands of real racing environments, RCI fuel cells combine intelligent design with race-proven materials to keep drivers safe and fueled for the fight.
Construction That Performs Under Pressure
RCI Racing offers fuel cells in two primary construction formats to suit different racing disciplines and rulebooks. The aluminum lineup is engineered for high-performance racing, featuring robust construction from TIG-welded 5051 aircraft aluminum alloy — a material chosen for its combination of lightweight properties and strength. RCI fuel cells are available with your choice of safety foam filling or a high-strength polyethylene bladder, giving racers the flexibility to meet sanctioning body requirements across a variety of classes.
For steel-can applications, RCI Wedge Circle Track fuel cells feature spot-welded steel construction with cross-linked, high-strength polyethylene bladders, and the cans are powdercoated in red, black, or white. This finish not only looks sharp in the pits but also provides corrosion resistance in demanding race environments.
Specialized Lines for Every Racing Application
One of RCI's key strengths in the fuel cell category is the breadth of application-specific product lines. Whether you're turning left every week at a local oval or launching down the quarter mile, RCI has a solution designed with your series in mind:
- Circle Track Fuel Cells: Features include -8AN (standard) or -10AN male pick-up assembly hose designed to pick up from the right rear corner and -8AN male rollover vent.
- Drag Race Fuel Cells: Feature a 12-bolt, aircraft-style, lever-lock, flush-mount lid assembly with #8 AN male fittings, 2 pickups on a 2" sump, and a rollover vent.
- Rock Crawler Fuel Cells: RCI Rock Crawler fuel cells are strong steel cans fitted with cross-linked, high-strength polyethylene bladders, offered in 12 or 15 gallon capacities.
Safety-First Engineering Details
Equipped with a 12-bolt heavy-duty aircraft-style flush mount lid assembly, the RCI fuel cell ensures secure sealing and easy access, while the inclusion of safety foam significantly reduces fuel slosh. Select models also feature a universal sending unit and are designed with two pickup outlets, one return line provision, and a rollover vent, making them a versatile choice for various racing setups.
