When you're racing around the course, if you hit a cone, someone has to pick it up. These are people who are also participating in the event, not a paid employee or something.
So people will be designated as racing or working or resting in each heat.
If you're working, you're most likely designated a corner for picking up cones and letting the trailer know if a racer went the wrong way. There are some workers who are at the start line, or doing something else, but most are at the corners.
Don't let this discourage you, it's not that much work, just sucks when it's really hot. You being up North, it might be cooler this time of year. For TX, it's still hot, so I may not go to another event until the one in Mid-October.
