Since 1961, Portland International Raceway (PIR) has been a valuable community resource for motorsports as well as numerous other community activities.  Over time, it has developed into one of the pre-eminent race tracks in the United States and has been a regular venue for most of the premier U. S. professional race series.  Local and national users alike have contributed to PIR's maintenance and enhancement and it has been largely self-sustaining.  Its uniqueness comes from its convenient location within the Portland city limits and its city ownership.  The latter makes it very affordable for users and also expands its utility to numerous groups unconnected with motorsports.

Friends of PIR are committed to the preservation and enhancement of PIR as a resource for those who use it, both participants and spectators alike; sustaining and expanding PIR's civic contribution as an institution in North Portland; providing guidance and support for the ongoing management of PIR in a manner that assures its ongoing value as a venue for motorsports and other diverse forms of recreation and entertainment.
