A Road-Ready Toolbox: Sonic USA and Kies Motorsports Unveil Mobile Track Kit for Performance Fans

This article was written by the Augury Times
New co-branded 124-piece mobile track kit goes on sale this week
Sonic USA and Kies Motorsports announced a joint product today: a co-branded 124-piece mobile track kit built for people who work on cars at the track or on the road. The kit, presented as a ready-to-go toolbox for weekend warriors and pit crews alike, arrives with a focus on toughness and quick repairs. The partners say the kit is being launched this week and will be available through both brands at rollout.
What’s in the case — the tools, materials and track-first features that matter
The kit centers on a compact, weather-resistant case filled with a hand-picked set of tools aimed at the most common track-day jobs. Inside you’ll find a range of combination wrenches, a ratchet and socket set in both metric and standard sizes, hex bits, screwdrivers, pliers, and a torque wrench sized for quick adjustments. The 124-piece count covers common fasteners and small specialty items like spark plug sockets and a tire-pressure gauge.
Design choices are clearly made with the track in mind. The hard shell case has a molded foam interior that keeps tools organized and prevents rattling during transport. Several pieces are finished with corrosion-resistant coatings and knurled grips for better control when hands are oily or gloved. The kit also includes a fold-out magnetic work tray and a bright, washable work mat so nuts and small parts don’t roll away on gravel or asphalt.
Uniquely, the set adds a few extras you won’t always see in a standard toolbox: quick-release sockets to speed wheel changes, labeled shadow slots so you can tell at a glance if anything is missing, and modular inserts that let you pull out only what you need for smaller jobs. The packaging is designed to be stackable and to sit in the trunk or the back of a support van without taking up too much room.
How sonic engineering met track know-how in the partnership
Sonic USA, a tools maker known for its hand tools, teamed with Kies Motorsports, a team and aftermarket brand that races and tunes cars, to blend tool quality with real-world racing experience. The two say Sonic supplied the manufacturing expertise while Kies contributed user feedback from drivers, mechanics and crew chiefs during development.
That collaboration shows up in small but practical design calls — for example, including longer-handled wrenches where teams requested extra reach, or adding a dedicated slot for a valve-core tool after repeated requests from tire techs. The partnership pitches itself as pragmatic: make tools that stand up to track use because people tested them under pressure, not just in a factory checklist.
Who this kit will actually help — from hobbyists to crew chiefs
The kit is aimed broadly. At one end are hobbyists and track-day drivers who want a single, tidy package for routine maintenance and minor repairs between sessions. At the other are small race teams and mobile mechanics who need portable, reliable gear for roadside or paddock work.
It’s not meant to replace a full garage setup: large teams with specialty equipment will still carry more tools. But for solo racers, support drivers, and anyone who needs to do quick swaps or adjustments without lugging multiple boxes, the kit is a clear fit.
Where to buy it, how much it costs and what comes next
The co-branded kit will be sold through both Sonic USA’s and Kies Motorsports’ sales channels, including their online stores and selected dealers. The companies plan limited launch bundles — think a slightly expanded kit or branded carrying straps — to coincide with early orders.
Rather than naming a single sticker price, the partners are positioning the kit in the mid-hundreds of dollars range depending on whether buyers choose add-on modules or promotional bundles. The kit also comes with a basic warranty and customer support through the usual manufacturer channels.
Why this matters in the broader performance-tools market
Tools for performance driving and racing have been an increasingly competitive corner of the aftermarket. Enthusiasts want kits that are light to move, tough enough for repeated use, and smartly organized so downtime is short. This release taps into that demand by packaging a focused, track-ready selection rather than a bulky, general-purpose set.
For Sonic USA, the collaboration gives the brand direct access to on-track feedback and a chance to show its tools in tougher conditions. For Kies Motorsports, co-branding helps put its name on gear used by everyday drivers as well as teams. Both sides are signaling that practical usefulness — not just logos — will decide whether the kit sticks in trunks and vans.
Expect to see the kit show up at track events and in social media run-throughs in the coming months. If it proves as sturdy and useful as it looks on paper, it could become a common sight in pit lanes and tailgates where fast fixes matter more than fancy packaging.
