Jason Musser began repairing cars 20 years ago when he couldn’t afford to continuously pay for maintenance on his first car. At the time, he had no intention of making it his career, but when he discovered his distain for teaching after earning a Masters Degree in Mathematics from Western Kentucky University, he fell back on automobile maintenance to make ends meet. After roughly three years of working in peoples driveways, Musser decided to open his own business, Musser Motorsports. Musser feels fortunate to be able to continue working while many other businesses are forced to close their doors.“If you read on business, sometimes businesses are compared to a baby. This is my baby, you know, and if I don’t care for it in the right way, it’s gonna die,” said Musser.
