HillClimb Event Roles

Get in on the Action

HillClimbs are unique, interesting and complex events. They have a feel of energy and excitement that doesn’t exist anywhere else in motorsports. And you can be a part of it all - whether you want to be a driver or not, just by helping out.

There are many ways to assist to ensure a successful HillClimb event. You can help stage competition cars and prepare drivers to leave the start line, you can be a marshal manning a corner station on the hill, you can help direct in the paddock, greet spectators, hand out lunches, or almost anything else imaginable. Here is information about the key and most common roles that make a HillClimb work:

Corner Marshals

HillClimb courses have a number of corner stations, each staffed with a marshal or two equipped with a radio, red flag, and a fire bottle. Marshals coordinate with mountain control to monitor the course, keep track of cars, and manage incidents. This is the perfect role for people who want to be close to the action of HillClimb competition.

Start and Staging Team

The start and staging area at a HillClimb is the epicenter of event excitement. Staff position cars, check safety gear, and send drivers off to take on the hill. This team ensures the course is ready while providing calm support to drivers and staff.

Paddock and Event Support

Paddock team members help organize the paddock, direct traffic, keep coolers stocked, deliver lunches, and provide communications. A great role for those who enjoy meeting people and keeping events organized.

Communications and Promotion

If you have skills in writing, photography, videography, or social media, you can help create content and promote HillClimb events before, during, and after competitions.

Greet our Guests

Help guests enjoy the HillClimb experience by selling tickets, directing foot traffic, or answering questions. This role is perfect for people who are outgoing and enjoy interacting with others.
