MADISON AUTOMOTIVE APPRENTICES INC

Fee for service motorsport activity includes support activities for motorsport vehicles and general engineering assessments for improving performance. These activities provided 81% of workshop revenue for maap, mostly through a contract with international motorsport association (imsa) team jdc-miller motorsports. These motorsport efforts led to the achievement of the 2024 tcr champion title. These activities are supervised by the executive director cole scrogham who is also an accomplished motorsport engineer. Students with motorsport aptitude learn the engineering process, data acquisition techniques and overall workflows for a motorsport event which provides them with a unique perspective on their future involvement in the sport.

Special events related to automotive restoration and motorsport have also been important for students involved at maap, particularly at cars and coffee, motorsport events and the big annual trip to the amelia island concours. These events involve competition in real world environments, but also give a sense of the overall industry by visiting large scale car shows and other venues. This year, maap sponsored four students to attend the amelia island concours event as well as selected motorsport events on the imsa schedule. Our event schedule makes sure that students get introduced to decision makers for future job opportunities at these events. We have devoted a bulk of workshop time this year to preparing two vehicles for the upcoming 2024 amelia island concours.
