MotoGP uses volunteer marshals because so many are required (8-10 per corner, and some stationed on straights). There are still plenty of paid staff on hand. I volunteered myself two years ago.
And as others have said, it's not an issue of "can." Obviously, we can. The issue is, "Is it prudent?" Even if we got blistering deal, three days of track rental would probably run in the $50k range. How many endurance teams would compete when the entry fees are $250 or $300/hr? What if we have an incident (accident, weather, or otherwise) that forces races to be cancelled? Each of the last 3 years, we've had an event cut short. Simply put, the risk to the club and the burden on individual members is just too high right now.
Beyond that, George, are you an actual CMRA member? I can't find any George Schagar or Zagars as having held a license or entered a race in the last several years. Are you just a fan?
