About this event
Chicago Region SCCA
Volunteer Registration for the IMSA / CONTINENTAL ROAD RACE SHOWCASE Weekend
August 2-5, 2018 at Road America
(NOTE: We are only staffing Friday, August 3, through Sunday, August 5. We are not staffing Thursday with the exception of registration.)
We invite volunteers planning to work the Continental Tire Road Race Showcase featuring the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship event to pre-register here. This will allow the Region to plan staffing levels, lunch and dinner counts, and to provide the best experience for all our volunteers.
If you know of others planning to work the event, but do not typically use MotorsportReg to pre-register, PLEASE pass along the information below. Those individuals who are unable or unwilling to use MSR may contact the online registrar to have their pre-registration entered for them.
Worker Specialties We Will Be Staffing in 2018 (at this time we know of the following, and is subject to change):
-
F&C
- Corner Workers
- Flag Chiefs
- 1 backup communicator
- 2 backup starters
- Course Marshals
- Paddock

- Registration
If you do not see your specialty here, or if your specialty is already fully staffed...
Sign up for something new and try that!
CAMPING:
Camping will be available offsite at the Oasis.
GUEST PASSES:
As in previous years we will be allowing workers to obtain one guest pass for those who are not working but accompanying them to the event. In 2018 we will again implement a strict one (1) guest pass per worker policy, as has been the policy previously. This year we will only be offering this benefit to those workers who pre-register. Only workers who pre-register on MotorsportReg will be able to reserve a guest pass. The guest must also be pre-registered in MotorsportReg in conjunction with the worker registration. Overages and non-preregistered guests will be asked to purchase a spectator pass at the spectator entrance. There is concern over controls in previous years, forcing tighter monitoring of this policy. We thank you for your understanding.
WORKER VERIFICATION:
As part of the controls for 2018 we will again be implementing a strict oversight policy for this event. Specialty chiefs will be provided with a list of workers who checked in for their specialty, and they will be required to verify when and where they worked. Anyone who checks in as a worker and is not verified to have worked at least a full day (across the entire weekend) will be addressed. It is the worker's responsibility to check in with their specialty chief and make sure their work was validated.
MEALS PROVIDED:
As usual, lunches will be provided each day. There will be a light dinner served at the worker party Friday night (NOT box lunches), and a typical worker dinner provided Saturday night. Beverages will be provided both nights as usual..
