It would appear that SFS has found their Black Flag. Now if they just knew how to use it. I did not attend but hear about Bragg getting a Black flag for spinning Bonstedt, Last week Jamon Gregory got one for spinning I believe the 12, 2 weeks ago we got one for spinning Nunley. but there are more spins they dont see. If the rules stay consistant why didn't Owens go to the back after stopping on the track? Was this fair for the remainig Drivers? In my opinion alot of the frustrations stems from the way they "DONT SEE" things happen, when they do see something I feel as though they look at who's involved before they pass judgement. They have set a criteria that if ANYONE spins ANYBODY you'll see a BLACK FLAG. Now I'm all for them using all the flags as long as they see everything and to say "I didnt see it" Is like a Doctor saying "I forgot to give you anithesia"!

Don't all the corner guys have radios? Do they not ask if anyone has seen anything that "I didn't see?" I know everyone sees things differently, cause what you see from the stands is totally different from what you see at track level or from the infield. JMO

Im a corner flagman at Enid and if they hit a guy in the corner and spin him and dont get off the gas that is a pretty good sign for a black flag. I have actually seen guys turn there heads and come down into them. If it looks like a racin deal I wont call it, but most of the time it is obvious that one is needed. At Enid two officials have to agree in order to make that call.

is history,
tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That is
why they call it the present.

I like the two Officials having to agree, one being a corner worker that is right on top of the action.
