Announcer; Drag Crew

You will be the ‘voice’ of World Wide Technology. Ultimately, we are in the entertainment industry, and you will be the one driving the entertainment level for our racers and our fans. Those interested must have automotive knowledge, as you will be required to have meaningful conversations about the various vehicles and be able to recognize the different vehicles solely based upon sight, as information is not always provided and/or entered in the computer data base.

A general understanding of the sport of drag racing is needed. It may appear simple in concept; however, the various classes have more intricacies than meets the eye. The willingness to learn or get to the know racers during a season or weekend is necessary. As well as having the gift to gab or story telling talent. You are not only announcing the outcome and the facts of the race, but you are also doing it in a fashion that entertains at the same time.

The more knowledgeable you are about the racers and the sport the more successful you will be in this position. Good organizational skills are also necessary, as you will constantly adjust on the fly and will be required to convey information even when there is downtime on the dragstrip.

• Must be 18 years or older
• Be able to work in a team environment and take direction – we work very close with one another and at a very fast pace.
• We provide the equipment used to prep, clean and dry the racing surface. Prior equipment experience is not necessary, although preferred. You must be comfortable and willing to learn.
• Communicate Professionally – Good verbal communication skills are required not only internally with your teammates but also with our guests.
• Reliable transportation – Our day starts early and could end very late. Reliable transportation, preferably yourself, is required. Because your ride cannot get you here on time or wait until the end of your shift, are not valid reasons to be late or to leave your position before the race has been completed.
• Stamina – hours can be long, and we do work in an outdoor environment; therefore, endurance is required. You must be prepared for all elements and conditions.
• Majority of these positions are located outside in a variety of temperature and weather conditions. You will be on your feet most, if not all your shift. Shift lengths and end times are all driven by the event and you must be flexible.
