WEBSTER CITY, Iowa (March 16, 2026)—The 2025 Motorsports Economic Impact Report by PRI is your definitive resource for understanding the important impact racing has on your community and across the nation.
The motorsports industry is accelerating into a new era of innovation, growth, and competition. The 2025 PRI Motorsports Economic Impact Report delivers a comprehensive look at how the business of racing—from grassroots to professional levels—is driving economic growth and providing jobs across the country.
Traditionally, economic impact reports about racing are focused on the impact of a single event – major race weekend events for a specific local and state economy. These are studies that study the impact of the tourism dollars that come into the economy as a result of that single event.
This report is different because it determines the economic impact of the businesses that support the existence of racing in the first place.

The PRI Motorsports Economic Impact Study analyzed the motorsports industry and its effect on the national, state, and local economies within the United States. The motorsports market includes manufacturers, distributors, and retailers who produce and sell performance and racing parts specifically for use in professional or amateur racing.
Performance Racing Industry fuels the passion for motorsports by building, promoting, and protecting the worldwide racing community. PRI supports the interests of racers, enthusiasts, builders, tracks, sanctioning bodies, and businesses through legislative action and advocacy and the world's premier motorsports trade show: the PRI Trade Show.
