FABRICATION and PROTOTYPING FACILITY Dan Gurney's All American Racers (AAR) has been in the racing business since 1965. Through the years, the company has designed, built and campaigned EAGLE racing cars for the top echelons of international motorsports like Formula I, Indycar, sports cars and CART with many victories to its credit. Overall about 160 cars have been built in Santa Ana; 21 of the 33 cars on the grid at the Indy 500 in 1973 were Eagles. Under the guidance of its owner and CEO Dan Gurney, the company's prototype and manufacturing facility has been continuously modernized and expanded. The 75,000 sq., ft. factory encompasses five buildings. These house a state-of-the-art CAD design department, quality assurance, vehicle dynamics, data acquisition and analysis department, a development team and race shop, CNC machine shop, two 5 Axis mills, fabrication shop, 40% wind tunnel, water tunnel, and 800 degree/200psi electrically heated TEC autoclave and a complete composite and material department. It employs a highly skilled and educated work force used to working under enormous time pressure which the racing calendar with its unmovable deadlines demands. Apart from open-wheel and sports-car chassis, AAR has been involved in building motorcycle prototypes, constructed Plymouth Barracudas for the TransAm Series and championship winning Toyota Celicas for the IMSA GTO Series. Recently, AAR has designed and built championship winning Toyota Eagle GTP cars as well as Toyota Eagle champ cars for the CART circuit. In the past, AAR had its own engine department. Engines developed and built include Chevrolet, Ford Cosworth, Toyota GTU and GTO and work on the 12 cylinder Gurney Westlake Grand Prix engine. It is presently reestablishing its engine building credentials by designing an American engine for the Alligator motorcycle prototype. The company with its fabled racing history provides a link to the glory days of the sport and at the same time manages to be on the cutting edge of technology. It looks back to the past with fondness, but keeps an eye firmly on the future.
