As one of the recognized leaders in the specialized field of vehicle dynamics development, we can help you solve elusive issues in-program or help you lay out a top-down program from concept to production. We help you establish metrics, set objectives, estimate resources, plan your time line, and satisfy your customer requirements. We have shaved months from successful OEM vehicle programs by making informed, experienced decisions to reduce development iterations and program costs and get your product to market faster with the refinement and fun to drive character that will surprise and delight your customers.

We conduct expert subjective and objective vehicle ride, handling, steering,braking, NVH, and performance assessment using appropriate public road, test track, or proving grounds facilities. Instrumented data can augment subjective assessments per your requirements. Results and recommendations are communicated confidentially on-site and by written report.

With 35+ years of product development knowledge and experience on many successful OEM vehicle and tire programs, we can assist your core team and Tier 1 supplier base define your vehicle's personality, set measurable metrics and functional objectives, benchmark targeted competition, and select hardware and software systems to meet program goals and timing. From virtual vehicle models to early development "mules" to production vehicle launch, we can help your team produce world class products on time and within cost, weight, and investment budgets.

Testing is the most important and expensive aspect of the discovery and validation process which is vehicle development.  Many programs get bogged down in sweeping, all inclusive testing at the component, system, and vehicle levels because of unclear goals, inexperienced personnel, flawed test protocol, equipment lacking maintenance, and a number of other reasons. A well designed and executed test plan, subjective or objective, can realize appreciable savings in personnel time, contracted facility and travel expenses, equipment wear and tear, while hitting program milestones on time with quality test data, resulting in well-informed development  decisions. This is what All American Dynamics does.

We offer customized training for your test driver, engineer, or manager targeted to your specific requirements depending on your business goals, experience level, and budget. We teach subjective and objective system and vehicle evaluation methods, rating and ranking methods, and stress the importance of the driver/machine/road interfaces and information feedback loop. 

We can help your team identify and solve elusive shake, buzz, squeaks, rattles, and other vibrations and noises. We have access to four wheel dynamometers, four and seven post shakers, extensive vehicle development experience, and well designed Shainin and Kepner-Tragoe based source identification plans which permit efficient and effective issue resolution and recommendations.

We have conducted in depth "blind test" subjective and objective vehicle dynamics tests at speeds up to 220 mph to develop well balanced, inspirational vehicles blending the mechanical and aerodynamic properties to achieve synergy levels worthy of world class automobiles. Whether your vehicle is experiencing directional stability, wind noise, tubulence, or downforce issues, we can help you solve these conditions and more.

Human factors are a crucial aspect of any vehicle design and development activity. Our extensive and highly successful vehicle integration experience at the OEM level to set meaningful and measurable functional objectives and synthesize the driver/occupant/vehicle interface can be brought to bear on your next vehicle program.

To cultivate corporate level awareness and university level curiosity, we deliver lectures and seminars on a wide range of automotive engineering topics: vehicle development and integration, vehicle dynamics fundamentals, tire dynamics, chassis system (steering/brakes/suspension/structure) optimization, chassis design, suspension damper tuning and performance  variability,all tailored to your specific needs and requirements.

With over 40 successful major product launches under our belt ranging from small sport utility vehicles to high performance and supercar vehicles, we can help your team with critical detail planning recommendations and implementation of media evaluation vehicle preparation, appropriate driving circuit evaluation, logistics support and time schedule considerations, temporary or artificial on road (parking lot-style dynamic driving events such as autocross, lane changes, slaloms) and off road feature performance demonstrations. Your company gets one chance to make a good first impression of your new product with the media. We know what it takes to achieve favorable motoring journalist reviews and magazine covers to create customer awareness and sales momentum.

Successful test track design includes balanced considerations for vehicle program and test cycle objectives (macro and micro surface feature design, use of existing ground features to reduce excavation cost, operational safety (sight lines, vehicle runoff and recovery areas, appropriate barriers), efficient access to comparative track features and component change facilities. We have designed highly successful and sustainable on road and off test tracks for handling, ride, NVH, and off road functionality. A lot of firms invite you to consult with them on track design. Why not team up with someone who has designed and overseen construction of ride and handling tracks, comfort and NVH evaluation roads, and off-road demonstration courses? Before you start moving dirt or laying asphalt, give us a call.

We bring our considerable industry experience to bear managing component/system/vehicle projects or programs from concept to production launch. We work as a member of your team in any and all phases of the product creation cycle. If your organization is short staffed, we can help.
