Founded back in 1988 by Chris Paulsen, C&R Racing began life as a fabrication and machine shop serving the IndyCar industry. Paulsen worked as a chief mechanic for top drivers, and honed his skills. He recognized a need for top tier cooling components, and as such became a well-known source for cooling solutions in the NASCAR, IndyCar, NHRA Drag Racing, and IMSA SportsCar Racing worlds.
