Checkered Flags
We offer durable nylon checkered flags in 4 different colors and 7 different sizes. In addition to our popular checkered pole and racing flags, we offer checkered car flags and checkered feather flags. These flags are a great addition to any racing flag collection and are a great way to decorate any automotive themed business.
The checkered flag is displayed at the finish line to indicate that the race has been completed. The flag is commonly associated with winning a race, since the winner is the first driver to drive past the checkered flag. Upon seeing the checkered flag and crossing the finish line, drivers are required to slow to a safe speed, and return to their garage. The flag consists of alternating black and white rectangles which form a checker board pattern. In NASCAR and F1 events, a single checkered flag is waved to signal the completion of a race. In IndyCar, two checkered flags are waved together.
