THE RACEWAY IN THESE PHOTOS, IS TALLADEGA INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY IN TALLADEGA, ALABAMA.  THE WHITE FLAG WOULD BE WAVED ONCE AT THIS TRACK, AS AT ALL NASCAR TRACKS.  WHEN IT IS WAVED, IT MEANS THAT THERE IS ONE LAP REMAINING UNTIL THE END OF THE RACE.  NOW TO US NASCAR FANATICS, IT MEANS,"OH MY GOSH!  GO!!!!!!!COME ON!!!!!!!            NOW ,THE BLUE FLAG WITH THE YELLOW STRIPE WAVING, MEANS THAT THE DRIVER NEEDS TO PAY ATTENTION TO HIS OR HER MIRRORS.  A FASTER CAR IS APPROACHING FROM BEHIND.   YOU PROBALLY WOULD NOT SEE THIS FLAG VERY OFTEN AT TALLADEGA.  IT IS USED MORE AT YOUR SMALLER TRACKS, WHERE THE CARS BUNCH UP MORE IN TRAFFIC, ie; BRISTOL OR MARTINSVILLE.   FANS WANT BE LOOKING FOR THIS FLAG, THEY WILL BE TAKING ANOTHER DRINK OUT OF THEIR FAVORITE BEVERAGE CONTAINER  WHILE THIS ONE IS WAVING.        THE BLACK FLAG IS JUST LIKE IT SOUNDS....."YOUR IN TROUBLE!"  IT MEANS NASCAR WANTS YOU TO COME INTO THE PIT AREA IMMEDIATELY FOR CONSULTATION.  IT IS USUALLY WAVED AT AN INDIVIDUAL CAR BECAUSE OF A MECHANICIAL PROBLEM OR A BROKEN RULE.  I HAVE SEEN INSTANCES WHERE IT WAS WAVED AT 2 OR 3 CARS AT A TIME DUE TO SOME "HOT TEMPER" FLARE-UPS.  YOU MIGHT SEE THIS ONE FLOWN SEVERAL TIMES AT TALLADEGA.  FANS LIKE THIS FLAG WHEN IT IS AGAINST A DRIVER THEY DO NOT LIKE VERY MUCH.  IF IT'S FLOWN AGAINST THEIR FAVORITE DRIVER, THERE WILL BE A LOT OF BOO'ING AND SOME CURSING FOR SURE.  NOW, IT IS WAVED IN COMBO WITH THE RED FLAG DURING A PRACTICE SESSION.  IT SIGNIFIES THAT PRACTICE SESSION IS OVER.     I HOPE THIS HELPS FOLKS UNDERSTAND, AND THIS IS FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN !!!!!!!!!!!     GO KASEY KAHNE #9!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
