Beginning as a mechanic and amateur driver, Scotts motorsports career spans nearly forty years and covers everything from Formula Ford to Formula 1. While a mechanic at McLaren International, Scott was a part of the 1976 World Championship team with driver James Hunt. In 1984, Scott came to the United States for the first time as a Lead mechanic of Mayer Motor Racings Indianapolis 500 team, before moving to a Chief Mechanic and trackside engineering role for the Buick Indy program. In North America, Scott is best-known as half of former chassis constructor Riley & Scott. The companys best-known creation, the Riley & Scott Mk. III, dominated prototype racing in IMSA and the USRRC with 48 wins including three wins at the Rolex 24 at Daytona 38 pole positions, six drivers championships and three constructors championships. Riley & Scott also designed and developed the Cadillac Northstar LMP as well as chassis for the Trans-Am series. Returning to open-wheels, Scott operated the companys IndyCar program in 1998 and 1999. More recently, Scott has operated Prototype Development, which creates prototype parts in the auto racing, marine, and aircraft industries. Over the past two seasons, Scott has served as the race strategist and team manager for Genoa Racing in the American Le Mans Series and European Le Mans Series. Ive always had a passion for sports car racing, and joining APR Motorsport is very exciting for me, said Scott. The Audi R8 Grand-Am is a very impressive car and Im glad to have the chance to work with the team and its drivers to develop the car into a winner, especially in such a competitive season of GT-class racing. I have many great memories from the Rolex 24 at Daytona and am looking forward to being back for the 50th anniversary of the race at the end of the month. Scotts first race weekend with the team will be the 50th Rolex 24 at Daytona, which takes place in two weeks on January 28-29 at Daytona International Speedway. We are thrilled to welcome Mark to APR Motorsport, said Jeff Mishtawy, Director of Motorsport for APR. We recognized that Mark will bring a lot of skill to our Rolex Series program with our new Audi R8 Grand-Am. With the amount of success that he has enjoyed in endurance racing, we feel he will immediately make an impact with our program.

APR MOTORSPORT PRESENTS THE AUDI R8 LMS

APR MOTORSPORT PRESENTS THE AUDI R8 LMS
APR MOTORSPORT PRESENTS THE AUDI R8 LMS Team will contest 2012 Rolex Series season with first Audi R8 LMS in North America, beginning with 50th Rolex 24 at Daytona November 23, 2011 (Opelika, AL) APR Motorsport is proud to announce that it will become the first team to compete in the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series with the Audi R8 LMS, when the team takes the green flag for Januarys 50th Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 28, 2012 and, hopefully, is first to the checkered flag on January 29. Passion for the Audi brand runs deep at APR. Stephen Hooks, President and CEO of APR, was an aspiring driver and Audi enthusiast who raced Audis in the Motorola Cup the predecessor to GRAND-AM. After leaving his driving ambitions to build APR into the largest aftermarket and motorsport company for Audis worldwide, Hooks returned to competition as a principal in APR Motorsport. The team was the first to race Audis newest and hottest sedan, the B8 model generation Audi S4, in the GRAND-AM Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge. Being the first team to field the R8 LMS in North America is a natural progression for APR Motorsport. The winning pedigree of APR Motorsports brand-new Audi R8 LMS, the first example built for the Rolex Series, is undoubtedly strong as well. Examples of the Audi R8 LMS have taken victory more than one hundred times in races in Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America. Now, APRs customers as well as Audi fans from Ingolstadt to Alabama will cheer on the APR Audi R8 LMS as it seeks to add to the win tally. Building upon experience gained in the CTSCC, APR Motorsport will now have the Rolex Series Grand Touring class looking over its shoulders with the series newest major contender, the Audi R8 LMS. Using the same team and infrastructure that has made the team a force to be reckoned with in the CTSCC, the team will now look to shake up the status quo of the Rolex Series which has seen the series dominated by the same three manufacturers over the past several seasons. The Audi R8 LMS, which is already a proven platform for success in GT racing the world over, will have the rest of the GT field looking over its shoulders. APR Motorsport also remains committed to discovering and developing the best driving talent found today in GRAND-AM. Teams hoping that this will spell and end to APR Motorsports efforts in the CTSCC will be disappointed, as the team will continue its CTSCC program in 2012, with an exciting announcement about that program coming soon. APR Motorsport will make further announcements about drivers for the APR Audi R8 LMS, as well as marketing partners, in the coming weeks. APR Motorsports Audi R8 LMS will make its on-track debut dressed in the distinctive APR Motorsport livery at the Roar Before the Rolex 24 test at Daytona International Raceway on January 6-8, 2012.
