[QUOTE="showtime586, post: 812463, member: 52960"] How about what happened to Vohland a few years back at Unadilla? The problem we have at the local level is track operators are always seeking flaggers from the stands. These kids want to make a few bucks (few being the operative word) and jump out there without any instructions on what to do. Instinctively, they go and try to help a downed rider, instead of positioning themselves to signal other riders of the situation. I remember one real bad crash where the flagger was a 12 year old girl. She freaked and came unglued. We had to run out on the track and get her away from the situation before we could address the real situation. I think the operator paid his flaggers 20 bucks for the entire day. I thought it was bullchit to pay someone so little for such an important job. I excerised my opinion by not riding their anymore. I think you can get quality help if you are willing to pay them something. [/QUOTE]
