Cut and Pasted from Wikipedia:
IHRA was purchased by Palm Beach International Raceway owners in 2013 and was renamed IHRA Motorsports. PBIR also owns and operates Memphis International Raceway. Those companies were integrated into IRG Sports + Entertainment also in 2013.

It has been reported in other places that "TPG" purchased the IHRA last summer. I can not confirm this.
