A night at the Races 80th birthday Part II

When my father was younger he enjoyed racing cars.  The story is that while dating my mother he could make it from his hometown of Commerce, Georgia to Lawrenceville, Georgia in 30 minutes.  It takes most people close to an hour to make this trip.  I don't know if this is true or not--but it does go to show his love of driving fast.  

My brother had a great idea to take Daddy to the Gresham Motorsports Park in Jefferson.  Gresham Motorsports Park opened its 2014 racing season on the Saturday evening we attended.  The Park hosted its first Stockerama which is  contest on both the quarter and the half mile oval tracks.  The tickets are $10 for an exciting evening adventure.  

I was most interested in the flag man.  Along with the green starting flag and the checkered finish flag, he waved multiple combinations of flags in an effort to communicate to the drivers speeding around the course.
