WHO WE ARE
America's First Intercollegiate Motorsports Education Program
The National Association of Intercollegiate Racing (NAIR) is pioneering a new era of collegiate motorsports by combining competitive racing with higher education. Our mission is to provide students with real-world experience in engineering, business, marketing, leadership, and teamwork through a nationally recognized racing program.
Building the Future of Collegiate Sim Racing
NAIR was founded with a bold vision—to establish the nation’s first intercollegiate sim racing education program, making competitive motorsports more accessible and affordable for colleges and universities across the United States.
Traditional motorsports often require significant financial investment, limiting opportunities for many students and institutions. NAIR removes those barriers by providing a professional sim racing platform that delivers the excitement, competition, educational value, and industry exposure of motorsports without the high costs associated with traditional racing.
By combining competitive sim racing with hands-on learning, professional development, and industry networking, NAIR empowers students to build practical skills in engineering, business, marketing, leadership, and team management. Our goal is to bridge the gap between education and the motorsports industry, creating an inclusive pathway for the next generation of racing professionals.
