The World Motorsport Marketplace was established in February 2006 to enable the motorsport industry and motorsport competitors, participants, suppliers and enthusiasts to create or find new opportunities, locally or internationally.

Trade shows, print publications and directories provide a valuable service, but The World Motorsport Marketplace is the most useful marketing channel for the motorsport world because, as an Internet site, its reach is unrestricted, its availability is 24/7, and the information it carries is up-to-date.

The World Motorsport Marketplace is a resource for all levels of motorsport, from the grass-roots amateur to the full-time professional, and for all forms of four-wheeled motorsport: Drag, GT, Historic, Kart, Oval, Off-Road, Midget, Rally, Single-seater, Sportscar/Prototype, Touring/Sedan and Truck.

Behind The World Motorsport Marketplace is a management team with extensive international experience in motorsport, the automotive industry, marketing, Internet portals and e-business, and finance.
