| | #365 30 +c boo koo rider , from what i hear my accident where i was run over by another rider was not flagged what so ever and could of turned out to be worse, lucky i only suffered a ac separation and torn ligiments with a rotator cuff injury. the track was nice but needs to be changed in a couple places before i and im sure others will be back... i dont think they were prepared for this race.flaggers need to be trained not be pulled out of the crowd, they were to busy watching the race rather then for accidents. |

| | Where do they find these idiots who flag .They never pay any attention to what is going on around them . #365 could have been alot more seriously injured.I thought it was the maine dirtbike ***. to make the track as safe as possible . Well they certainly not doing there jobs. THe riders expect to go and have fun not get hurt because nobody is paying attention.I would say it's the bike ***. that is responsible for this one. FLAGGERS DO YOUR JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| I think that they should have a little training session before they are expected to go out there and do their job, because some flaggers today did not look like they knew what they were doing. The race overall was good, but the flaggers stuck out in my mind because i went down and nearly got run over. Overall, good day.

| | In my mind changes in the track are something that you can forgive. Im sure they have made alot of changes but flaggin is one thing that should not be overlooked. Its not hard to have like 10 minutes and just tell the flaggers how to do the job. |

| | the first thing that should be said to a flagger is... do not flag at the crash!!!! flag 30 feet BEFORE the crash!!! Pat is right.. you should cut em alittle slack... although flagging is a VERY important subject!!!! it was their 3rd race at that track i believe and it was the most riders that track has had. last year was just over 200 i think and this year was 275 or so. i know ray gave em a walk thru before practice.... while we had are riders meeting. but maybe they need more than that. maybe a meeting or training the day before or something else. sorry to hear and see your crash Rick.. hop eyou heal fast!!
