The great thing about a Mini 4WD Race is that it is easy to set-up and easy to run. It will not take a lot of employees to get one going. Track set-up can easily be handled by one person, unless you have a particularly elaborate track. Running the race will require a starter and some volunteer car catchers. A play-by-play announcer will generate much more excitement and attract more spectators. If you are inspecting cars for compliance with the rules, one knowledgeable inspector will suffice.

Starter
The starter will gather the three racers, bring them to the starting line, and start the race. When the cars have completed the requisite number of laps, he will announce the winner and have the racers pull their cars from the track.

Announcer
The announcer works in conjunction with the starter to organize the race and keep it running smoothly. He will also provide the spectators with information on the hobby including cost, skill level, variety of kits, etc.

Car Catchers
Since it is possible for the cars to leave the track if they are not set up properly, it will be helpful to have a few racers stationed at strategic places around the track to catch cars as they de-track. The Tamiya Car Catcher is also helpful to use when a faster car catches up to a slower car on the race track.

Inspector
To ensure that everyone is playing by the rules, it is a great help to have a designated inspector to examine each of the cars before they run.
