“As a motorcycle owner, former racer and lifelong enthusiast, it’s a dream-come-true to take the reins of the Motorsport Aftermarket Group,” Charvat said. “In this role, I get to leverage my experience in aftermarket products with my affection for powersports. I know that we have important work to do in order to return MAG to being the industry leader it has been in the past.”
“We worked hard to find someone with both passion for motor sports and experience in the aftermarket business,” said David Robbins of Monomoy Capital Partners, lead investors in MAG. “Hugh is the right choice to lead an organization as large and diverse as MAG. The members of the board and I are excited to have him join the great team at MAG.”
