Here is the infamous volunteer list for the upcoming NICOfest Drift/autocross at Carlisle. I broke everything down into hour slots to share the pain. We hope everyone can volunteer for a coupleslots. If you are planning to drift only, we ask if you could please helpduring the autocross, and vice versa. If you want to do both,that’s great. With the track operating for so many hours, I’m sure you and your car will need a few breaks to cool off.
If you’re volunteering. please give yourself enough time topark your car, and get out to your position. So you might want tocut back a couple minutes of your run group. We want maximumtrack time for everyone. But we can’t accomplish that unless we haveour volunteers in place.
Here are the positions:: Tech inspector: working a simple checklist for each driver/car/helmet, you don’t need to be a mechanic. The checklist should take about 2 minutes per car to complete. The only physical labor involved will be torquing lug nuts. Bringing a torque wrench would be helpful.
Registration: Once a participant passes tech, they will register. It’s very easy. Involves getting all the waivers signed and filed, checking drivers licenses for age 18 min., issuing car numbers and wristbands.Corner workers: for safety, alerting for knocked down cones, resetting them, watching for debris, spin outs, fluids, etc and reporting them to the starter . Each worker will be issued a safety vest, flag, and possibly a walkie talkie. Starter: In charge of safety/launching. The starter coordinates with corner workers/lap timer, plus double checks for tech stickers on the cars and that the drivers have their helmets on before launching them.
Sweeper: Since drifters will occasionally use more than just the track, they may kick upsome stones/debris onto the track, This job is simply a one lap walk to toss/kick/ sweep the debris off the line, after the last drifter finishes and before the first autocrosser begins. We’ll also be setting up the cones during this period as well. It only takes a couple minutes to walk the entire course. Brooms will be supplied.
Both tech and registration will be located at the NICOfest tent beside the track, so there should be plenty of chairs and shade during your shift.

Please just reply to this thread and let me know which slots you’d be interested in helping and I’ll update it. There will be no corner workers needed during the drifting, just sweepers after the last drifter finishes.
Any questions, please let know on this thread. Thank you very much for your help.
