Smith Performance Specialties Pioneer Quality Chassis Engineering

Since 1972, Smith Performance Specialties has been at the forefront of chassis engineering, setting benchmarks and transforming the racing landscape across the U.S.A. and Canada.

Smith Performance Specialties has built a reputation for pushing the boundaries of what is possible in chassis engineering. In 1987, they made history with the Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, the prototype of a front-wheel-drive car converted into a rear-wheel-drive race car. This groundbreaking project set the standard for N.H.R.A.’s guidelines on front-wheel drive conversions, showcasing SPS’s ability to innovate and lead in the industry.

The journey of Smith Performance Specialties

In Cayuga, Ontario, a team of talented individuals rolled out the first Ciera. Since then, Smith Performance Specialties has constructed over 160 front-wheel drive conversions for accomplished racers across North America. The dedication to quality has earned them a place on the Car Craft All-Star Drag Racing Team as Sportsman Chassis Builder of the Year in 1992, 1993, and 2000.

The first-hand racing experience of F.J. Smith, combined with his close interaction with many drivers, allows Smith Performance Specialties to offer custom products tailored to the unique needs of racers. This experience ensures that every SPS product is built with true precision and attention to detail.
