Owner and Founder

3-D Racing Components (DRC)

Kevin Harter is the founder of 3-D Racing Components (DRC) and the Team Manager for Borelli Motorsports, bringing decades of hands-on racing experience and proven leadership to the karting community. Since beginning his racing career in the late 1980s, Kevin has competed in Japan, Hawaii, North Carolina, California, and Ohio in both 2-cycle and 4-cycle classes. His deep understanding of kart mechanics, chassis dynamics, and real track-side problem solving directly influences every product designed at DRC.

Every mount, bracket, clip, and accessory created under the DRC name comes from real-world racing needs—tested under competition conditions to ensure durability, fitment, and performance.

Outside of karting, Kevin is a retired U.S. Marine Corps Master Sergeant with 23 years of service. He currently serves as the Deputy Commander and Quality Assurance Group Leader for DCMA Cleveland, leading large technical teams and ensuring the reliability and performance of critical aerospace and defense programs. The discipline, attention to detail, and technical rigor developed throughout his military and civilian careers drive the high standards behind every DRC product.

Today, Kevin’s focus is on delivering smart, reliable, and affordable 3-D printed components that solve real problems for racers—parts engineered by someone who truly understands the sport from every angle.
