Joining this late but I sit usually in section G with Chuck and the kid right in front of us flagging. I've noticed on more than one occasion that the kid had the yellow ready before the flagman knew what was happening on the track. I've never seen him wave his flag before the real flagman displays whatever flag is necessary. I also realize that with the size of the burg one person can't see everything all the time. Just seems to me that the kid reacts quicker than the real flagman and seems to love flagging a race. I enjoy watching the kid flag and seeing how fast and good he is with the flags has now become part of the nite's discussion after the races. I also sincerely hope that no one gets hurt because the flagman didn't react in time..
