Get Real, CLOSE
Get Real, ACTION
Get Real, INVOLVED
With support from 150 new volunteers the San Francisco Region SCCA helped to pull off a very complex and exciting undertaking, the 2005 Taylor Woodrow Inaugrual Grand Prix of San Jose.
Being a SCCA worker positioned you right next to the track and it was every bit as thrilling as you might imagine. All the pictures on this page were taken with a Fuji Finepix S5100, no professional photographer's long telephoto lense here, just up close and personal with a pocket camera. Thanks to Andrew Phan.

If you can wait until next year to be a part of the action we hope to be looking for volunteers again. Perhaps you'll bookmark this page and stop by again in late Spring of '06.

| If you'd like to be a key part of a race weekend right away, you can join SFR’s Road Race Flagging and Communications crew (F&C), emergency response (rescue and tow crews on track), pit fire marshals (red shirts in pit lane), or grid crew (Orange shirts at the Touring Car, Trans Am, Stock Car and Toyota Atlantic grids).
San Francisco Region puts on 12 regional race weekends at Infineon, Laguna Seca and Thunderhill each year. Volunteers receive training at regional races and then become eligible to participate at the Pro events. In addition to the San Jose Grand Prix, we also staff the Pro races at these tracks including two ALMS events, Grand Am, IRL, Monterey Historics and NASCAR.

It's easy to volunteer for one of the road race crews, just showing up at one of our Regional events. You can go straight out to volunteering on a turn or take an Ambassador Tour that will introduce you to all our support crews: F&C, Grid, Tech, Registration, Pit Fire and others.
Our next regional race weekend will be at Infineon on September 3-4. We will be running seven race groups with everything from Formula Atlantics to Showroom Stock Corvettes. Also on the schedule is our first 2005 Spec Miata Challenge Series race where you can see 60 Miatas putting on an exciting show.
