The Story Behind
Race Day Co

Hi,

I’m Terry, the fellow behind Race Day Co.

If you’ve spent a little time wandering around our website, you’ve probably noticed something a little unusual.
One minute you’re reading about personalised racing keepsakes…
The next you’re meeting from Around the Barriers, Tommy, Clarrie and Finn. 

That’s no accident.
I built Race Day Co to celebrate two things I genuinely love.
The first is helping people preserve their racing memories through quality products they’ll treasure for years.

The second is storytelling.
Stories have always been part of racing.
Walk into any stable, race club or country pub after the last race and you’ll find them everywhere.

Some make you laugh.
Some make you think.
Some become legends.

Behind the Barriers is our way of celebrating those stories.
Tommy and his mates are fictional.
We say that openly because we’d never want readers to think otherwise.

They’re simply the friendly faces we use to welcome you into our little racing clubhouse.

The racing…
The history…
The people…
The places…

And the stories they share…

They’re all inspired by the real racing community we admire so much.

Race Day Co, however, is very real.
Every design is carefully prepared.
Every proof is checked before production.

Every order matters.
Every customer matters.
Our promise is simple.

Create something we’d be proud to give our own family.

Could we have built a website filled with nothing but facts and product pages? Of course we could.

But racing has never been just about facts.

It’s about people.
Characters.
Friendships.

The bloke who always leans on the mounting yard fence.
The lady who somehow knows everyone.
The traveler returning home with another story to tell.

Those are the people who make racing special.
We simply decided to invite a few of them into our pages.

So yes…
We enjoy a smile.
We enjoy a little imagination.

But when it comes to the products we create and the promises we make…
That’s where imagination stops and professionalism begins.

Welcome to Race Day Co.
I hope you enjoy the stories.
And I’d be honoured to help

tell yours.
