About US

In the beginning...

After years of experience in welding and fabrication, moulded with a keen eye for quality it was time to start creating a name for ourselves. Originally Binks Auto Fabrications, the long-winded name just had to vanish, and so focusing more and more onto track focused vehicles each year - the name BAF Motorsport was brought to the front line.

 "YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE GREAT TO START, BUT YOU HAVE TO START TO BE GREAT."

 What we do…

Based in Yorkshire we have become well known for creating some of the best custom exhaust systems in our local area. But that does not mean we are limited to just that one line of work...

The K-Brace is our proudest creation, with over 100 bespoke vehicle designs and shipping worldwide, vehicle handling and stability will never be the same.

Bespoke performance parts such as intakes, spoilers and boost pipes are well within our calibre, with 100's of projects under our belt we are capable of all your desires.

Need a repair? From alloy wheels to manifolds we can repair just about anything whether it be a crack or a reconstruction - we are here to help.

"IMPOSSIBLE ONLY MEANS YOU HAVEN'T FOUND THE SOLUTION YET."

 

 The Envision…

 Our aim is to improve not only ourselves but to enhance the products that are available to you. We will continue to grow the K-Brace collection until the end of time, while expanding our product range in other fields of work.

"THE BEST WAY TO PREDICT YOUR FUTURE IS TO CREATE IT."

THE K-BRACE®
The main role of bracing is to increase torsional rigidity, this leads to an improvement in grip, steering response, and feedback from the car, all due to the fact increasing the torsional rigidity allows the suspension to control more of the vehicle's kinematics.
 
The K-Brace® is the definitive product on the market today backed with data from the University of Huddersfield!

HEIGHTENED PERFORMANCE

With the 4 fixing points and making use of a triangulation design, the K-brace® is able to produce an undoubted amount of support in comparison to that from a singular bar strut brace.

UNIQUE DESIGN

Car manufacturers often use additional strengthening supports to the strut mountings of a standard vehicle. The K-Brace® utilises these supports, along with the K shaped design to reduce body displacement by 18% during various driving conditions.

INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS

The K-Brace® will always be mounted so the most optimum position in your individual vehicle is achieved, while also ensuring that the usability of the car does not change. Meaning no compromise to boot space or the function of rear folding seats.

TAILORED PREFERENCE 

The industrial standard powder coating we provide is second to none. With 6 base colours to choose from, you are given plenty of scope to customize your K-Brace® as you choose. We can even offer custom colours for those looking for that extra special touch.

Theory Behind the K-Brace®

Here at BAF Motorsport we have been working with our partners at the University of Huddersfield to quantify the effect the K-Brace® has on the performance of a car under various loading conditions.

We have completed thorough design reviews with the University to analyse our design and justify why each part is as designed.

To show our customers a quantifiable value we have completed hand calculations, finite element analysis and real work experimentation. Each of these have given us data to show that the BAF Motorsport K-Brace® is able to reduce the body displacement of any vehicle by 18% while increasing the torsional rigidity by x%.

This increase means the suspension has greater control of the vehicle kinematics allowing the car to be more predictable, more responsive, and faster around a track.

Thanks to the work conducted by Jordan Brace, John Allport and Chris Binks we have been able to prove that the K-Brace® is ‘not just for show’ and gives a quantifiable increase in torsional rigidity all without any compromise to boot space and rear seat function, for less than £164.99.

Our Partnership with The University of Huddersfield

 

How it all began…

After coming to finalise details, and have a tour, with the team we entered discussion and as things often do they develop, from there we set up a partnership to conduct some analysis on our K-Brace® that we have been wanting to do for a long time!

In late 2021 we were asked by the years Team HARE members to undertake welding on the 2022 race car they were manufacturing for the 2022 Formula Student event.

How it turned out…

So, over a six-month period we conducted our analysis and published our results onto our website and throughout social media. We concluded that our K-Brace® was able to give an 18% reduction in body displacement.

What next…

This work provided us with a quantifiable value and design ideas, but more importantly helped us connect with the University of Huddersfield and we hope to use this partnership to develop our company and products to benefit all our customers.

BAF Motorsport Rely On Evolution's New S355MCS Heavy Duty Chop Mitre Saw To Get The Job Done

"Wakefield based BAF Motorsport are leaders in the motorsports accessory market with their innovative K-Brace suspension frame. BAF have built a solid reputation with racing teams and custom car builders around the globe for the performance and quality of their products and they rely on Evolution’s new S355MCS Heavy Duty Metal Cutting Chop Mitre Saw to deliver the enhanced accuracy, speed and quality that they need to stay ahead of the competition."

"When cutting performance, speed and accuracy are key to the success of your business, you too can rely on Evolution Power Tools to help you get the job done."

What is a Heavy Duty Chop Mitre Saw?

Built for professionals, the S355MCS Chop Mitre Saw from Evolution is the first 355mm TCT industrial Chop Saw that allows you to produce precise mitre cuts in large metal tubing and profile sections without having to reposition the workpiece.

Better than a bench bandsaw?

The S355MCS cuts, faster and cleaner than a bandsaw, saving you time as you work. Our rail mounted clamp system and angle-adjustable baseplate allow you to set a precise cutting angle with any workpiece and our long lasting TCT blades leave a clean ready-to-weld cut that you can take straight to the welding table.

Power & Cutting Capacity

The S355MCS offers a 165 x 100mm maximum cutting capacity, large enough for most popular tubing and profile sizes. With 2,200 watts of motor power it has enough horsepower to tackle any cutting task and will run all day long.

Versatile and Reliable

There's no doubt that the S355MCS Chop Mitre Saw is built to last, from its cast and CNC machined angle-adjustable base to its oversized motor and innovative dual front-clamp rail assembly every part of this saw is an investment in quality.

Ease Of Use

With a large ambidextrous control handle and two-stage safety trigger your new Chop Mitre Saw will be a breeze to use. The dual-clamp front rail system allows easy clamping of awkward workpieces for cutting at any angle between +/- 46 degrees and as the team at BAF Motorsports have shown it's easy to rig additional clamping options using our Bench Dog compatible baseplate system.

Value For Money

The S355MCS won't be the most expensive tool in your workshop, but we believe it'll revolutionise the way you work, helping you to be more profitable and offer better built products to your clients.
