Thumbs up I need racing supply store

I am trying to find a place to buy some racing supplies, helmet, racing suit and shoes etc..
is there such place in Sacramanto ? or even in the bay area ?
I am just tired of shopping online, nothing seems right, size doesn't fit or product is much worse than it is in picture.
Can somebody help ?

Tognotti's on Fulton Avenue Sactown.

Or you can check carmichael honda motorsports. They have lots of racing suits and such. They cater towards bikes though.

I tried to locate Tognotti's today, googled it and address is at intersection of El Camino and Fulton, I went there but couldn't find it, I am new in the area, is there another Fulton that you refer to ?

There is a Chevy dealership across the street and a CHEVRON on the other corner.
Hard to miss it.

This doesnt help right this second, but i will be opening some kind of parts store in the Sacramento Area sometime int he near future.
I have been testing waters and considering for some time to make available racing supplies and parts. What are some racing parts and supplies that you have found from your experience hard to come by in the area. Thanks for your inputs

Sure, a selection of redline oils (only 1 local pep boys), decent race brake fluid, and good service. It is super hard to compete with Summit/Jegs and Tire Rack in this market though. It really helps if you have a great counter staff who wants to help. You could vend from regionals ground control and porterfield. And, it always helps to have a few lend tools.

You better go check again, it is as big as a Safeways...located on the corner for easy access. It's across the street from all the Vette's. Target is on the corner of Fulton/AltaArden...that's about 3 blocks away.
