About Us

We build solutions for Drivers

Motion Control Suspension (MCS) designs and builds precision damper systems for racers, builders, and drivers who demand results.

Every unit is hand-assembled, dyno-tested, and traceable—engineered for performance, reliability, and control.
MCS delivers confidence you can feel and support you can count on.

The MCS Promise

Our shared values keep us connected and guide us as one team.

Solutions, not SKUs.

We don’t sell parts — we deliver purpose-built solutions. Every setup is tailored to the driver, not the database.

Analog at its core.

Every click matters. No laptops, no software, no guesswork. Pure, mechanical precision you can feel, hear, and repeat every time.

Support that lasts.

We back our products the same way we build them — with care and longevity in mind. From your first install to your next rebuild, the MCS team stays with you.

Our Story

A Timeline of Experience

Early
Foundations

The founders of Motion Control Suspension began their careers in professional motorsport, working across multiple shock manufacturers. Those early years formed a deep understanding of damper design and a belief that suspension is the most powerful tool for improving how a car performs and feels.

Precision in Motorsport

JRZ Suspension Engineering

In the 1990s, one of MCS’s founders co founded JRZ Suspension Engineering, while another led U.S. operations. JRZ quickly established itself at the highest levels of motorsport, earning a reputation for precision, durability, and race proven performance.

Expanding Innovation

Moton Suspension

Building on that success, the founding team later launched Moton Suspension, with U.S. operations driven stateside. Moton became a fixture in endurance racing and GT competition, supporting top tier programs and championship winning teams, including PTG.

The Birth
of MCS

2011

Three industry veterans formally united decades of motorsport and damper engineering experience to create Motion Control Suspension. From day one, MCS was built around a single objective: delivering confidence through control. The brand quickly became trusted across IMSA, SCCA, NASA, Porsche Club Racing, and BMW Club Racing.

A Standalone U.S. Operation

MCS is a fully independent American manufacturer based in Atlanta, Georgia. Design, assembly, and inventory are controlled in house. This independence eliminates overseas delays, currency exposure, and unnecessary freight costs, giving customers faster access to products and direct technical support.

A Living
Legacy

Today

While some founders have stepped back from daily operations, they remain actively involved as mentors and advisors. The team they built is made up of racers, engineers, builders, and mechanics who care deeply about the craft and take pride in doing things the right way.

Founders’ Legacy

Decades of Suspension Innovation

Long before Motion Control Suspension (MCS), our founders were shaping the suspension industry inside some of its most respected companies and during its most competitive racing eras. That experience laid the technical and philosophical foundation for everything MCS builds today.

Jerome van Gool

Jerome co-founded JRZ Suspension Engineering in 1994, helping establish it as a benchmark in professional motorsport. In 1999, he went on to found Moton Suspension, continuing his focus on advancing damper technology built around precision, reliability, and repeatable performance at the highest levels of competition.

Co-founder of JRZ Suspension Engineering, Jeroen built JRZ into a benchmark in professional motorsport by pioneering advanced damper technology focused on precision, reliability, and consistency. He later founded Moton Suspension, another brand that became a force in endurance racing and high-performance road applications.

Jeroen’s vision — precision engineering with consistency you can trust — is embedded in the DNA of MCS and continues to drive how we design, build, and support every product.

Lex Carson

Lex began his career at Carrera Shocks before leading U.S. operations for both JRZ Suspension Engineering and Moton Suspension USA. His leadership played a key role in bringing European suspension technology into American motorsport and high performance road applications.

His leadership helped bring European suspension technology into American motorsport and road performance, shaping how high-end damping systems were designed and supported in the U.S.

After decades of driving innovation and building relationships across the motorsport community, Lex retired in 2017. His standards for precision, reliability, and customer care remain core to MCS today — a lasting reflection of the values he championed throughout his career.

Kent McCray

Kent brought a rare, firsthand perspective as a driver, car crew chief, and engineer. That combination grounded MCS in the real world realities of operating a race car, not just engineering one. His influence helped shape solutions that work under pressure, earn trust on track, and perform exactly as intended when it matters most.

Kent McCray

Kent’s career began behind the wheel and under the hood — a true wheelman on both two and four wheels. Starting as a team principal and engineer, and later as a customer of JRZ and Moton products, he joined Moton USA, where he supported top endurance and GT teams like Prototype Technology Group (PTG).

Kent’s rare dual perspective — as both engineer and driver — shaped MCS’s people-first philosophy: build solutions that earn trust because they’re developed by those who’ve lived it. Though he officially retired in 2023, Kent remains closely involved with MCS, continuing to guide and support the team as a trusted resource and mentor.
