Our Beginning

Our history begins when James Richards was working in Formula 1 providing leading-edge transmission solutions. It was then that James Engineering started to materialize as the need for precision deburring and chamfering was needed for the state-of-the-art transmissions. James was a key figure in allowing Nelson Piquet to win the Formula 1 World Championship twice, Gordon Johncock to win Indianapolis 500, and Electromotive to claim the GTP Championship. During that time, James himself won NHRA’s best engineering award. Shortly after that time, James brought his innovations to the world. Since then James Engineering has brought the world pioneering advancements.
