grail Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 My team had some confusion as to what certain flag signals mean. I tend to forget what they mean in the heat of the race too. So attached, is the descriptions pulled from the wcma sporting regulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mile High Racing Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Thanx Peter, would of helped if i had found this before hand, so i didn't pull off the track out of 2nd place when i didn't have to. Talk about ruin your day, but i still had fun anyway trying to get back into the top six with no success! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chkdsk Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Found the old power point presentation on flags. It won't let me upload a pps file to the forum so I put it on my site. http://www.jordansharples.com/wscc/Ice%20Race%20Flags.pps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimW Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Excellent PPS Jordan!! Just to add/ clarify the yellow flags though...Single waving yellow; 50% or less of the track is blocked, slow down, no passingDouble waving yellow; more than 50% of the track is blocked, slow down a lot (its okay no one is allowed to pass you), be prepared to stop. The incident is likey on the race line or in the obvious escape route. Be prepared that the car in front of you is going to hit the incident area and end up blocking the whole track.

Is there anything else that needs to be changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimW Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I thought you made that your self. Everything else looks good to me; a guy with no WCMA credentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
