Do you have a Jack Hewitt Approved Flagman Certificate?

I don't know your experience level, but I'd suggest contacting any/every track that you're interested in helping. Even if it isn't an Official Starter position, they may have some openings available that will at least get you in the door. Just walking in as a new Official Starter is pretty difficult if you don't know the procedures of the rest of the team. I wish ya luck. 🏁🏁

For your information I'm def better then billy shipman and if you remember a gentlemen back in the late nineties all the way up to about 2005 I was the kid that stood behind the flag stand at Lawrenceburg terre haute eldora bloomington lincoln park and several other tracks in 2007 I was behind the flag stand at the four crown and did get the chance to wave a silver crown hot lap session. So before you criticize have a little respect

You weren't criticized once, That Hewitt line was a joke about something that happened with him years ago.

The video is funny I apologize if I offended anybody

If you’re as sensitive as it appears you may wanna rethink officiating on any level at a racetrack. You’ll get eaten alive.

As a kid I watched Shipman flag the World of Outlaw Midgets and when I saw that video I nearly died laughing 🤣
