It all started back in 1977 when Dale Adams incorporated his business, at that time it was operating the Willow Park Texaco service station. In 1981 The business moved to 42nd avenue operating Macleod Trail Husky Service Station. A few years later, in 1983, it was time to focus on the passion of working on vehicles and not having to worry about operating the fuel station; that is where the company became Dale Adams Dyno Tune and Brake Specialists.

The business is still operating in the same space today with 11 service bays, a chassis dyno bay and 11 full time employees including 7 fully licenced technicians.
