Welcome to the QM Engineering Group
Through its companies, The QME Group offers a range of specialist Motorsport products and services focused around expert engineering, fabrication and race car preparation.
The QME group is a creation by motorsport stalwarts Roger King and Gary Blackham who between them have over 38 years of top level international motorsport experience. The group philosophy of Quality Matters in Engineering is based on the founders joint belief in the importance of quality engineering at the highest levels of competition in motorsport. During the 1990s the two principles enjoyed major successes throughout international competition culminating in LeMans 24 Hrs with the Audi factory team. A tally of almost 20 LeMans brings a wealth of motorsport track experience from the toughest of all motorsport races.
