Our Motorsport Management students at Belmont Abbey College hit the books during a recent library visit with our new Motorsport Research Seminar, MM397.

Last summer, retired Colonel Don Capps generously donated his motorsport library to the college. Our library staff continues to catalog books each day, and it is rewarding to see those materials getting into students’ hands.

We launched MM397 this fall to take advantage of this collection and give students the opportunity to explore motorsport history through their own research. Their questions so far have been fascinating, and I look forward to seeing where the sources lead them and what they discover.

Thank you, Colonel Capps, for trusting the Abbey with your collection and supporting the next generation of motorsport researchers. Your generosity is already making a difference for our students.

We spent the weekend at the NHRA 4-Wide Nationals at zMAX Dragway, where our MM390 Professional Development class got a true taste of Nitro.

A huge thank you to Greg Walter and the entire crew at Charlotte Motor Speedway for making our students feel so welcome throughout the weekend.

It was another fantastic experiential learning and networking opportunity for our Belmont Abbey College Motorsport Management students.

One of the best parts of these trips is exposing students to just how broad the motorsports industry really is. Over the course of the weekend, our students met with professionals from operations, communications, hospitality, marketing, media, sponsorship, nonprofit organizations, and team management, including several of our own alumni.

Founders’ Day at Belmont Abbey College is here. This is the biggest fundraiser for our Motorsport Management program.

Where does the money go? Straight to student experiences and networking opportunities.

These experiences are what make this program.

Trips to the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, PRI, and the NHRA 4-Wide Nationals are not extras. They are the difference between sitting in a classroom and actually understanding how this industry works.

Students get to see it, be around it, and start building the relationships that lead to careers.

That only happens because of support.

To those in the motorsports industry, you know what it takes to break in. Your support helps create that path.

To our alumni, you have lived this program. I am asking you to give back so the students behind you have the same opportunities.

Give here:

This is what makes the program. This is what gives our students a real shot in this industry.
