We are always looking for help with...
Corner Marshals
The eyes of the drivers and officials for those things they can’t see. Known as "flagging and communications," these marshals are an additional set of eyes for drivers and stewards, helping with accident response, and reporting what's happening on track by making radio calls.
In addition to being a keystone in this important role at SCCA events, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR and F1 also use SCCA flagging and communication officials and you can frequently find SCCA members stationed on corner at events like the 24 Hours of Daytona the US Grand Prix, the Canadian Grand Prix, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Timing & Scoring
No one can set a lap record, sit on the pole or win a race without someone there to time cars, count laps and score finishes. Only a few years ago this was done with timing lights, pencil and paper – now the equipment is more computer and transponder based. Whether you're computer savvy or not - there is a place for you in the timing and scoring tower.
Starters
Some of the most critical and celebrated moments of a race are starts, restarts, and the famous checkered flag. Before a driver can hear, “GREEN! GREEN! GREEN!” over the radio or drive under the checkered flag, it's the starter making sure it can happen.
Grid
These SCCA officials help drivers line up, be sure they are ready to go, and let them know how long it is before they start their session or race. They are up close with with cars and people and the final step before drivers take to the track
Technical Inspection and Scrutineering
Other than the drivers and crew, these SCCA members are the most hands on with the cars. "Tech" inspectors know and understand cars and rules, particularly when it comes to safety. Before the races, tech inspectors check over cars and driver gear making sure each are ready for a weekend of fast action. After incidents, they inspect cars to see what needs to be repaired, and after each race they help inspect top finishing cars to make sure they are compliant with class rules
Registration
Those who lend a hand at registration are the ambassadors to SCCA events. "Registrars" make sure entry lists are ready to go before the event, and are the first smiling face people see at the track, helping welcome the rest of their SCCA family to the facility by making sure they get signed in and receive the proper credentials.
