The club was founded in 1903.

The club took its name from a French auto racing magazine owned by Germán Vidaillac (a founding partner of French ancestry).
The suggestion was well received and the name "Racing Club" was immediately approved.
Racing was the first football team integrally formed by "criollos".

The first jersey worn by the emerging club was white, until 25 July 1904, when it was decided a yellow and black vertical striped jersey would be used.
Nevertheless, the recently adopted uniform only lasted a week due to its similarity to Uruguayan club CURCC, being replaced by a design proposed by president Luis Carbone.
The jersey had four squares, two light blue and two pink.
This light blue and pink design would be worn until 1908, once again replaced by a design with three horizontal bars (two blue and one white).
Finally, Racing adopted the light blue and white colors in 1910, in commemoration of the May Revolution's 100th anniversary that same year.
