received refund for cancelled order
Update: received refund roughly 10 days after cancelling order.
Fake ETAs. Never received a brake kit ordered in September. These guys know how to make excuses.. They string you along. The company producing the item states that the item is not in stock with no definitive date of production while 10 second racing keeps stating that it will ship out "by the end of the week"
Total garbage
Edit: Still no refund: none of the nonsense about being offered to rebuild my existing brake kit is even remotely true. That is just made up.. Also there wasn't a recording of my "demands" by Powerstop. Your response to my review is also a lie.. I inquired via Email to Powerstop so you're not telling the truth about that & I was only asking them via Email for an explanation as to why my kit I had ordered hasn't shipped out yet. They said that with the information I provided from 10secondracing was not anywhere in their system and that I should ask for a refund, which is what I did. There was never a discussion about "rebuilding" the existing kit...
As for my refund, I never received a refund or confirmation yet.. If refunded, I may reconsider my rating but at this point, but you've proceeded to fabricate a lie about my end of the dealing, which is actually not surprisin. When I confronted you on the phone today about there not being any order information of my order at Powerstop, you tried to tell me that it WASNT ordered from Powerstop and some other supplier and through another supplier even though you had told me, numerous times in emails, that Powerstop would ship directly to my address... Which they did not have my address or info in their system when I asked for an update!!! They told me ask for a refund and not wait any longer. Luckily I have all of the correspondence between your company, myself and Powerstop saved in my email. You've done nothing but string me along for months. I will escalate this situation and contact the authorities if I don't receive my refund. I'm sorry I have to be like this but this is the last straw.. In Regards to ordering direct from Powerstop; only vendors such as yourself are supposed to be able to to that. I've called other vendors who list the kit on their site/viewed other vendor's sites and when communicating with them, they say that the kit is not available to order! Which is what you should have told me, in the first place! Instead, you're stating that I am being unreasonable for wondering why a kit I ordered in September of 2024 (almost 5 months ago) still hasn't arrived! Which Powerstop politely responded via email, not on a recorded phone Convo like you're stating.. with the fact that they didn't have any info about my order in their system.. again, I will contact authorities if I don't receive my refund.

Hi Robert, thanks for taking the time to leave feedback of your experience with 10 Second Racing. We are sorry to hear it has been less than optimal. Thanks for the provided order number. I extensively reviewed the notes and conversations from your order. The brake kit you ordered from Powerstop was and still is a custom built to order item. The prolonged lead time is attributed to Powerstop’s inability to obtain brake caliper cores to refurbish and include with this brake kit type. You were offered several times to mail your brake calipers to Powerstop to refurbish to complete the kit at a discount I may add. You rejected this proposal and opted to continue waiting. Our team proactively kept in touch with you every day since your date of order either via phone or email. You also spoke with Powerstop yesterday per a recording shared with myself from a contact I have with Powerstop. Their tech rep shared the same details with you and mentioned you were unreasonable with your demands for the order. I can see your order was recently cancelled and refunded today. Please feel welcome to order directly with Powerstop or another retailer if you feel you can source this brake kit faster. All the best building your 10 second car elsewhere Robert E Cartwright.

Company sold me a product that wasn’t…
i apologize for my previous review. The support team was good with communication as far as timing. However it still isn’t a good situation from the companies end. As a customer it’s probably not a good idea to have products listed on the site for purchase. If it wasn’t even available in the first place. Other then that the support team was very nice. I’ve said multiple times I’m not trying to be mean or rude. But at the same time from a customers side it was not good what this company did.
Response from 10 Second RacingNov 7, 2024
Sebastian, I read your entire email thread with our service team regarding your order. Your brake kit was shipped to you immediately after placing your order. Upon delivery, you sent an email to support claiming you received the wrong rotors. Our service team asked you to verify your Year/Make/Model as well as the design of the rotors you preferred. Instead of communicating like a civilized adult, you threw a temper tantrum. Our team continued a professional conversation with you even past this point in an attempt to resolve your inquiry to no avail. You are still welcome to return the rotors you received by submitting an RMA request to our support team. Regardless if you decide to keep the rotors or return them, you are no longer welcome to place new orders with 10 Second Racing. All future orders you place with your provided information will be cancelled. Best of luck building your 10 second car elsewhere Sebastian.

10 Second Racing Buying Experience
Found 10 Second Racing when I was looking for brake pads for my Kia Stinger. They had a good range of solid options at prices you can only dream of here in the UK.
They also have a lot of other tempting upgrades for my vehicle which makes them stand out from the rest. The website is informative and the ordering process was simple with regular updates on progress.
Wouldn't hesitate in returning based on experience so far. Also note, they cover modifications for a vast range of manufacturers

Shipping Info Request for other half of order
I purchased a long tube exhaust system for my C6 Corvette back in February. Order #3166 This was my 2nd order (Speed Engineering) as they weren’t able to ship my first order from Texas Speed due to emissions. Totally understandable. I’m a little frustrated because I was informed that the Speed Engineering Exhaust Kit was ready to ship however has not arrived? I received half of my order (the x pipe) and no issues at all, but it’s been 3 months and I haven’t been able to get an answer back from anyone (Edit: I am now aware of the policy that prohibits replies to emails without enough context). There has been no updates on my order tracking through your website. I just want to know where the long tubes are currently located and if there’s tracking info that will be available.

Hi Lucas, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about your experience with 10 Second Racing. We are happy to hear your X-Pipe and associated hardware was delivered safely to you. I reviewed your order and believe you are referring to your Long Tube Headers.10 Second Racing recieves monthly deliveries from Speed Engineering for various products. The 1-7/8" header option included in your order is an extremely popular header for the C6. We were expecting enough units of the 1-7/8" to be delivered in late May. Unfortunately we only recieved about half of the units as aniticipated to cover backorders such as yours. Some good news however, I have confirmed we are expecting another delivery this upcoming week with more of the 1-7/8" C6 headers. I have asked our team to set yours aside upon arrival to guarantee you recieve your headers this time around. Please expect tracking for the headers via UPS mid-late next week. I am happy to personally stay in touch with you via [email protected]

Hi Junio,
Thank you for taking the leave feedback about your experience with 10 Second Racing. We are sorry to hear your feedback is less than optimal. I reviewed your provided order number and discovered you had waited quite some time for your oil pump. We apologize as the manufacturer of the pump was impacted by significant material delays from their suppliers. I understand you were also expecting 10 Second Racing merchandise. I have confirmed we mailed you several 10SR official hats, shirts and decals to your provided address. We apologize again for the lead time on your pump and do hope you consider using 10 Second Racing again in the future. We are happy to help however we can.

I have no words...
I was shopping around for a specific set of seats. I found them on 10 Second's website. I added them to my cart in order to get a final price including taxes and shipping. To my surprise, the order went through!
I quickly called them and was greeted by excellent customer service who kindly let me know that the saved credit card info on my phone likely prepopulated. Without hesitation, my order was promptly refunded and we concluded the call.
I was honestly a little dumbfounded.
I expected a fight.
I was ready for a fight!
Nope, all I got was great customer service.
I was so impressed that I called them back to inquire if they actually had the seats in stock.
They did!
I asked how long for shipping. I was told approximately 2 - 3 business days.
Additionally, I was provided a promo code!
SOLD!
I placed my order and sold my existing seats.
That was on Wednesday, January 17th, 2024.
On Monday, January 22nd, I received an email saying that they should have a tracking number for me soon.
???
If the seats were in stock and promised to me in a few business days, how is it that they hadn't even been shipped yet three business days later?
Apparently they had a snow storm and UPS was playing catch up.
Ok fine. Not their fault I figured, and I appreciated the proactive email from them to update me
Though a little disappointed to think that UPS can be sidelined by a little snow.
Mind you, I live in Canada.
One full week later on Wednesday, January 24th, I followed up by email as I was yet to receive a tracking number.
I received an email the next day (Thursday) telling me that the seats were picked up the previous evening and I should have a tracking number within the hour.
FINALLY!
I did get the tracking number as promised, and 10 Second's website gave an ETA of Monday January 29th.
On Monday, January 29th, I emailed again because the tracking information stated that in fact the seats have NOT been picked up yet.
They responded later that afternoon stating that some installation hardware was missing so they had to contact Braum to send it to them before they can ship the seats.
ETA on that? Not provided.
I responded that same day suggesting that they borrow the hardware from another set and ship my seats to me. That borrowed hardware could be replaced when they get their shipment from Braum.
Seemed logical to me. 🙄
No response.
So today, Friday, February 2nd, more than two weeks later, the tracking info still shows the item has not yet been picked up.
Once again I've followed up by email.
No response.
So, if you want initial good customer service, contact 10 Second Racing.
If you actually WANT an item, I would shop elsewhere.
Had I done this 2.5 weeks ago, I would have had my product by now.
Instead, I have a car that has no seats, and no real ETA on when I will get them.
Website still gives an ETA of Jan 29th.
UPDATE!!
Thursday, February 10th
So I was willing to chalk this all up to an unfortunate series of events - snow storm, no hardware, Braum's difficulty, shipping time from Braum to 10 Second, then to me, etc...
But now I am just plain incensed!!
I mean I'm spit raving, punch a hole through the wall, smash everything in sight pissed!!
So I tracked the item after it was finally shipped out from 10 Second Racing. I was supposed to have it yesterday.
Didn't arrive.
Finally arrived this morning! I was ecstatic that this journey is finally complete!!!
I gleefully opened up my (slightly beat up, but intact) box like a 10 yr old on Christmas day, and there is only ONE SEAT!!!!
ONE!!!!!!!!!!!
I quickly went to 10 Second Racing's website, AND to all the other sites I was previously shopping, and these seats are sold in PAIRS!
10 Second's description of the item states:
"Comes with two seats..."
I received ONE seat!!!
Sliders are there.
No mounting hardware!!!
Just one seat and a stupid 10 Second license plate bracket!!!
I'm so enraged that I want to cry, scream, kick my dog, anything! I just want to take this seat and throw it in my fireplace!!!
Contacted UPS in case it was their error.
They claim only one parcel.
To add insult to injury (though I can't blame 10 Second Racing for this), I got hit with a $216. COD custom's charge!!!
Outside of the U.S.? Be aware of this. I actually knew this, but in my excitement of ordering, this was a fact I totally forgot. 🤬
Again, NOT 10 Second's fault, that's on me - though a friendly heads-up would have been nice.
Tried calling 10 Second several times today - no answer.
UPDATE!!
Friday, February 9th
Well out of the blue, a second box arrived today WITH my second seat!
AND with full mounting hardware for BOTH seats!!!
HURRAY!!!
So, I WILL chalk it all up to a series of unfortunate events, and update my rating to 3 stars.
While I did finally get what I paid for, I still feel this whole process could have been handled better.
23 days of frustration.

Hello Michael,
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about your experience with 10 Second Racing. We are sorry to hear your experience has been less than optimal. I personally looked into the status updates with your Order #2982. I quickly confirmed there was a massive lack of effective communication from the manufacturer of your seats, Braum Racing. Our warehouse team had the seats ready to be loaded onto the UPS truck the following Monday on 01/22. Before loading the seats, an associate noticed the seats were missing the critical hardware needed to complete their install. We checked if we had an extra hardware set on hand to no avail unfortunately. Those hardware kits are included with each seat package, so they are not separated for this reason. I believe an associate at Braum may have just missed including the bag in your box. Nonetheless after this discovery, we immediately contacted Braum for the hardware set. Our team did not receive a follow up response from Braum until 01/24. A service rep suggested they do not sell the hardware separately and advised we ship the seats back for a replacement pair. If you read the last sentence and were surprised by its utter stupidity, you can imagine how we felt reading this response as well. After some haggling with a service manager for the following two days, we finally were able to have Braum agree to sell us two separate hardware kits (Despite their team neglecting to include them anyway). As of 01/26, we expected these kits to be mailed via UPS NDA with our requested shipment option. To our astonishment, Braum did not bother shipping out the hardware kit until the following Monday, 01/29 via standard ground. These guys are based in CA and we are based in NJ, so this is why we urged a next day air option (Braum still charged us for NDA rates go figure). To add insult to injury, Braum shipped the hardware via Fedex as opposed to UPS. Fedex is notorious for excessive ground shipping times, hence why we do not use them ourselves. The tracking number for the hardware set currently en route to us #727454777853. The ETA is set for this Monday, 02/05. There will be no further delays once the hardware arrives at our warehouse. Both seats will be shipped this Monday via UPS (We switched your shipping to 3-day ground expedited, NDA was not an option due to the package sizes unfortunately).
I understand this situation is completely unfair to you Michael. I have gone ahead and issued your Racer Rewards account a $100 store credit to use with us in the future. I understand this credit may not satisfy the frustration of waiting for your order, but do hope it demonstrates we recognize the situation and care. If you have any further questions on this order or technical questions we may assist with, please do not hesitate to contact our team at (888) 257-1077. We are happy to help however we can, thank you Michael!

Shipping woes
Seems to be a good company, but the shipping times are misleading. To be honest, i ordered a Flowmaster exhaust system that shipped straight from Flowmaster. I understand that they have no control over an outside vendor, but don't advertise 1-3 business days shipping when in reality you have no idea when it will ship.

Hi Gary,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry your experience with 10 Second Racing was less than optimal. Based on your provided feedback, I did not need to review your order to confirm any subsidiary brand under Holley's portfolio can be a nightmare to deal with at times. Your exhaust system is quite popular and is regularly stocked. We did not have units on hand and had to ship from Holley's HQ in Bowling Green, KY. I confirmed with our vendor relations team they had reached out to Holley no less than 9x in an effort to get your exhaust out the door. It is commonly known how disorganized Holley can be, however I suspect their logistics team places priority support on direct orders they recieve as opposed to dealers unfortunately. I wish we had the opportunity to make a better first impression for you and hope you will give us another chance to do so. I have asked our service team to credit your Racer Rewards account with 100 points to apply toward a future purchase on our store. Please feel welcome to reach out to us again anytime in the future friend.
