Race Tracks

NAICS 711212 · Performing Arts, Spectator Sports and Related Industries · SBA size standard: $47 million average annual receipts

Race tracks host motorsport, horse, bicycle and running events on paved ovals, dirt tracks and road courses. For a venue that books race weekends, practices and private test days, the specialists turn incoming entry requests into scheduled sessions, build daily heat and class schedules, manage fuel and parts inventory for support services, dispatch safety crews and track maintenance, and keep insurance, steward reports and sanctioning-body paperwork current. The track owner confirms all event rules, safety calls and spending.
