Who We Are
Vehicle Dynamics Group is powered by its people, and the success of our events proves it.
Have you met our team? Together we have decades of accumulated experience, training and expertise, which enables us to build experiences that amplify and showcase your message.
Jud
President
Jud established Vehicle Dynamics Group in 2000, combining his motorsports experience and insights gained from a career in automotive marketing, including 12 years as the National Director of Marketing Communications for Yokohama Tire Canada. Under his direction, Yokohama achieved many marketing and communication accolades, including a Gold Bessie and a Mobius Award for advertising.
He has been a motorsports organizer and contributor at both the amateur and professional levels, as well as lead instructor with several advanced driving schools. Jud’s experience, partnered with his serious passion for all things automotive, led to what Vehicle Dynamics Group is today – a top-tier Canadian experiential event management company.
David
Senior Project Manager
David has combined a passion for the auto industry, creative writing, business development, and event planning into a career. Over ten years, it has brought about many highlights including launching a brand new automotive lifestyle Canadian magazine, being an award-winning journalist, representing various reputable national newspapers and websites, as well as directing and developing the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada's (AJAC) EcoRun event since 2014.
David has an uncanny ability to not only find the ideal roads to showcase the vehicles, but bring about an entertaining, enjoyable, and hospitable experience for all participants involved.
Iain
Project Support Coordinator
From the day he obtained his driver’s license, Iain started developing his driving skills and perspective from both seats of the vehicle – as competitor and co-driver in activities such as autocross, time attack, lapping days, and Targa Newfoundland.
Iain’s understanding of all types of events grew from the ground up through his experience in automotive manufacturing, entertainment, and travel industries. With over 15 years of working as a VDG facilitator, he has grown into his current role. Iain provides an unmatched attention to detail and enthusiasm for engaging with people.
Robin Lynn
Administrative Support Manager
Robin Lynn has fond childhood memories of being a spectator at stock car and drag races watching her father. This early exposure, combined with growing up in a decidedly autophile family, forged a future adult appreciation for driving “fun” cars with standard transmissions.
Robin Lynn encompasses the heart and spirit of Vehicle Dynamics Group, and her years of experience as a facilitative educator have given her unrelenting patience and attention to detail that must be experienced first-hand to be appreciated. Her commitment to making sure things are done right the first-time around means the planning and managing of events, particularly in the areas of logistics, travel, accommodation and hospitality, always exceeds client expectations.
Joe
Creative Services Coordinator
A life-long amateur racer, Joe is a lead event facilitator, subject matter expert, and performance driving instructor with Vehicle Dynamics Group.
Combining his automotive insights with a career as an advertising creative, Joe designs and directs the production of program support materials. He also coordinates photography and videography for traditional media and digital space.
Ross
Project Specialist
A facilitator with VDG from the onset, Ross is one of the lucky few who’ve been able to combine a lifelong passion with a career. He’s been behind the wheel on both sides of the track – literally – having held both senior sales and marketing positions with well-known automotive brands like Castrol and Permatex, and participating in an active and accomplished racing career in off road events and rallies.
Ross knows cars, and he knows people – which is why he’s been a cornerstone of VDG’s success over the last two decades.
Len
Dynamics Coordinator
Len brings project management experience and automotive enthusiasm to Vehicle Dynamics Group. As a longtime competitor and organizer, he has won numerous autocross championships.
Combining this experience with five years as the Director of Professional Racing for ASN Canada, Len coordinates the planning and execution of dynamic drive activities.
Event Facilitators
The Vehicle Dynamics Group event facilitators come from varied backgrounds, including management, engineering, marketing, journalism, education, as well as diverse motorsport disciplines.
All team members are skilled professionals with in-depth experience in event production and are committed to the flawless execution of every detail. Several of our event facilitators are fully bilingual.
