Originating as a spin-off from the Industrial Engineering Department at the University of Naples Federico II and now operating as a tech-transfer company, MegaRide develops advanced real-time testing solutions for vehicle dynamics. On the other side of the Atlantic, Cleveland-based Stackpole Engineering Services delivers tire-modeling and vehicle-dynamics simulation platforms to OEMs and motorsport teams throughout North America.
By establishing a seamless connection between MegaRide’s performance tools and Stackpole’s Agile Tire® platform, end users gain access to an enriched, unified data environment that delivers deeper insights into vehicle dynamics and tire behavior. Performance engineers and trackside analysts can access, consolidate and visualize comprehensive tire data, empowering optimized setup adjustments and race-strategy decisions, while OEM partners receive detailed feedback on tire performance to inform product development.
Beyond technical synergy, the collaboration broadens the availability of MegaRide’s analytics across North America by leveraging Stackpole’s established OEM and motorsport network. The two companies will also jointly produce white papers to share best practices and quantify performance improvements in simulation testing.
