Pratt Miller Motorsports is an American auto racing team that currently competes in the LMP2 and the GTD Pro classes of the IMSA SportsCar Championship. ^{[1] [2] [3]} It was founded as a division of Pratt Miller Engineering by Gary Pratt and Jim Miller in 1989.

They are best known as service providers for many of General Motors' motorsports programs, ^[4] including the operation of the Corvette Racing team. ^[5]

A Cadillac CTS-V.

A Pontiac GTO.R.

A Chevrolet Corvette C7.R

Pratt Miller Motorsports was founded in 1989 by Gary Pratt and Jim Miller as a subsidiary of their company Pratt Miller. ^[6] In 1997, the team entered a partnership with General Motors and subsidiary Chevrolet to establish a new sportscar racing program based around the Chevrolet Corvette. The partnership resulted in the founding of the Corvette Racing program in 1997.

Since their alliance with General Motors, Pratt Miller have won numerous championships and famous racing events. Corvette Racing has won the 24 Hours of Le Mans nine times, claimed the overall victory at the Rolex 24 at Daytona in 2001, and won seven straight American Le Mans Series championships. Team Cadillac won seven Pirelli World Challenge championships, ^[7] while The Racer's Group, running Pratt Miller-built Pontiac GTO.Rs, ^[8] won the Rolex Sports Car Series championship in 2006. GM Racing's Katech-built LS7.R small-block engine was also named the 2006 Global Motorsport Engine of the Year. Katech built the C5-R and LS7.R engines that powered the C5-R and C6.R Corvettes in the GTS/GT1 classes of ALMS and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Following the 2009 24 Hours of Le Mans, Corvette Racing switched to the GT2 class and decided to bring the engine builds in-house. Corvette Racing won the 2012 and 2013 American Le Mans Series GT Team's and Manufacturer's Championships.

The team's exclusive racing partnership with General Motors ended in 2023, with the team beginning work with multiple partners in 2024. ^{[6] [9]}
