SIGN UP TO BE A PAID COURSEWORKER

Grassroots Motorsports is currently hiring autocross volunteers for the Grassroots Motorsports $2000 Challenge presented by Tire Rack!

Volunteer Compensation:

Each half-day shift will pay $50, and course workers will also receive a free T-shirt, free lunch, and free spectator access to the evening’s drag racing. They’ll also receive the gratitude of our competitors and attendees, and they’ll see the autocross from the best viewing area possible: the middle of the course! Sign up for both shifts and you’ll get paid $100 for the day.

(Volunteers who choose to race in the autocross may only run for exhibition due to changing course conditions.)

8:45 a.m.: Morning worker orientation at timing trailer
9:00 a.m.: Morning worker introduction at driver’s meeting

Volunteer Breaks:

We’ll have two relief workers rotating through each position to give workers short breaks for water, restrooms, etc. Plan on working about 1.5 hours between short breaks.

Volunteer Tasks:

Workers will be standing near the autocross course in the parking lot of Gainesville Raceway. When cars hit cones, they’ll walk onto the course to reset the cones and use a radio to alert timing & scoring. Workers must be 18 years of age or older, and must be able to move themselves around, pick up cones, and maintain awareness of their surroundings.

Volunteer Signup:

We’ll need plenty of workers to make this event a success, and spots are still available. Workers must sign up in advance at the MotorsportReg link below:
