Serrated and his family were invited to the Alabama Indycar race to honor his father by flying a special flag on the track during the national anthem. This episode recounts that weekend. It was an awesome experience and Barber Motorsports Park continues to prove that it is a world class facility in both the facility itself and the people that work there. Go see the museum if you have the chance btw. It's insane.

Sterling is in Spain now because politics were affecting him and his family personally. So we talk about that. More funny car stuff soon, but this is an important episode. Thank y'all for your support. We appreciate it more than you know.

This week we have Jacob Staufenberger (@thatguywithepurplemx5) joining the trio! He is the Rear tire changer and main body tech for the #2 United Autosports LMP2 car in IMSA USA. Chats of life as a race team member and what all goes into getting an Oreca ready for an extensive endurance race. Not to mention that Jacob and Serrated were classmates at Nascar Tech. Boiling hot brake fluid and turn one contact ahoy on this episode of Flag Time!

Yap episode this week. Serrated talks about visiting his fathers crash site at Barber and the massive snow storm that hit a couple weeks ago. Sterling talks about Sasha and future content. and JJ talks about a patella dislocation. Good vibes? Probably just vibes. This week on Flag Time

Host of "The Way of The Technician" Podcast and current Audi Technician Curtis Gardner, AKA Techgnarr, Joins Serrated and JJ to discuss the current state of the automotive service industry. Curtis has talked to many higher ups in this industry, so having his insight into how the majority of the technicians feel is invaluable. Hard hitting listener questions and a deep dive into the thoughts of management ahoy in this weeks episode of Flag Time

The Flag Time hosts all have experience with switching shops. So we tell you our experiences and give advise for those who may need to make that kind of move themselves. Don't do it on a knee jerk emotional reaction though, always make a plan. Plan your next move carefully so you're not hung out to dry. It's all strategy when you're dealing with the people with the money. Toolboxes have wheels for a reason, this week on Flag Time.

2026 is here. So is SEASON 4 OF FLAG TIME WHAT. New season, same humor. We talk about what we wanna accomplish in 2026. Some of us already achieving said goals which is nuts. So sit down with a good drink and snack as we air our grievances and aim to GET FIT this week on Flag Time

The episode that the Insta following voted a resounding 95% yes on, EM2 Yuki Joins us yet again and this time he's like actually drunk. Like for real. He does not recall this recording session. Many things were edited out. You can find a minimal cut version over on the Patreon when Serrated is done editing it cuz holy shit.

The automotive technician industry is flawed. Full Stop. In this weeks episode we discuss, complain, and brainstorm ideas of what can be improved. Elitist Flat Rate gatekeepers need not apply. Your 27 comebacks need attention probably anyway.
