Summit Motorsports Park Seeking Talented Team Members
Positions are available in several different departments, as the park prepares to open for the season with the 40th Annual Spring Warm-Up on April 10.

Summit Motorsports Park is preparing for one of its most important and inspiring years in its history.

And, the open-air venue which has been named Track of the Year twenty times by the NHRA, NMCA and IHRA, is looking for team members to be part of it. Positions at America’s Racetrack, which is at 1300 State Route 18 in Norwalk, Ohio, include:

Announcer: Summit Motorsports Park Announcers are responsible for calling all aspects of the race while also entertaining the racers and spectators. A familiarity with drag racing is not required, but those not familiar must have a willingness to learn and understand the sport as well as the vocabulary that comes along with it. Good communication skills are required, as is stamina as the race days are long.

Computer Operator: Summit Motorsports Park Computer Operators are responsible for entering all car numbers and dial-ins for the race. These numbers will affect the outcome of the race, so accuracy and focus at all times is crucial. Typing skills are a plus but not necessary. The timing system is a DOS-based program, however, Computer Operators will be trained on the job so previous DOS experience is not necessary. Other skills required include the ability to work in a fast-paced environment, clear communication and good stamina, as race hours are long.

Facility Maintenance: Summit Motorsports Park Facility Maintenance team members ensure that the park and its structures and surrounding areas are well-kept in various ways. They also help with repairs.

Food and Beverage: Summit Motorsports Park Food and Beverage team members prepare and present a variety of food and beverages to guests at a few different locations within the park. Offerings include breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks from a main menu, and occasionally a Summit Motorsports park specialty menu.

Hospitality: Summit Motorsports Park Hospitality team members warmly welcome guests to the park, and to suites and other areas throughout the park. They set out and offer food, snacks and beverages for guests, and help keep their areas clean and comfortable while engaging with guests.

Parking: Summit Motorsports Park Parking team members direct drivers to parking spots throughout the park. With busy roads on all sides of Summit Motorsports Park, this position requires the ability to act quickly to ensure that roadways remain clear for incoming, outgoing and passing traffic, which is especially important during large events welcoming thousands of guests.

Ticket Sales and Gate: Summit Motorsports Park Ticket Sales and Gate team members help guests with their ticket selection and purchase, and collect tickets at the gates. They also monitor and assist outgoing and incoming traffic.

Track Crew: Summit Motorsports Park Track Crew team members are responsible for preparing a perfect track for cars with all levels of horsepower, and for maintaining the track, as well as the waterbox, head of staging and staging lanes throughout every event. This outdoor position requires team members to efficiently work through various, and sometimes challenging, weather conditions.
