Flying the Flag

[speedog]

Flying the Flag - are you?

Mine's from the 2004 Cup run, a little bit frayed at the edges but appears to be strong enough for another run - been up for a bit now.

Only saw one other vehicle with a flag in all my travels on Friday...

[DENZILDON]

I still have mine. Time to put it up!

[403ep3]

Couldn't find my 2004s so I bought a couple from canadian tire. They are up on both cars now :)

Frameless windows. Would fall off every time i open the door.

Not sure if i would regardless though...

I like the flames alot,but i like my car more :rofl:

[rage2]

Those flags damaged the paint a bit on my 944. And it's fucking loud going 100. I love the Flames, but I love my cars more.

[killramos]

I would CONSIDER rocking a plate frame for the playoffs maybe but yea the flags are more trouble then they are worth.

Nothing like pre-cracking your window for something to break in :rofl:

[BavarianBeast]

Finished vinyl wrapping the whole car last night. Flaming C's on the hood, doors, roof and trunk.


Just kidding.

[spikerS]

after loosing a few on the road because I crack open the wrong window, I gave up on them.

However, if I had the funds, I would be willing to wrap the tailgate on my truck. Actually I thought Rage2 was going to do that already with a Beyond wrap or something. Drunken talk from the anniversary meet.

[rage2]

I thought about wrapping the BS in Red with Flames logos for the playoff run. But then I realized I have to rewrap the car afterwards, and it'll cost me $10k+ in total. So ya, not worth it.

That sure would have been a sight!

Maybe get the club to chip in for sponsorship dollars

Got to wonder what kind if wimpy ass windows did you have in your vehicle? Cheap Chinese glass maybe - not very baller. :rofl:

[killramos]

I was using the phrase "cracking a window" to refer to leaving the window open a crack. Makes it much easier for someone to hook onto the latch mechanism for the door with a coathanger etc.

But nice try :rolleyes:

[MalibuStacy]

Why do you need to crack the window for a flag? Unless you have frameless windows, otherwise the flag mount just sits in the upper window rail.

Who uses a coat-hanger to steal cars anymore :rolleyes:

Well based on the threads on here it appears we have a few members who live in dover. Figured i would include them in consideration :rofl:

That's not what I read on the men's room wall at the Glencoe. :dunno:

[bspot]

Car and bike have flags flying.

This is the best part of having a car I don't overly care about... haha.

[reiRei]

I will probably fly one off the Pinto on Friday. I live in enemy territory though :drama:

Interior BC? You're likely to find your windows and mirrors smashed.

Okanagan, so... maybe less smashed? I would hope :(

I had no idea there was so much animosity towards "red plates" until I wrote off a car in the interior last summer. By the time I returned with an RCMP member a shirtless dude with a rat-tail and flatbed had already dragged it into the woods "because a nice little car like that with red plates won't last too long 'round here.."

God damn Glencoe beer, we only had 3 pitchers between the two of us and I feel like jumping out of my office window :banghead:

[BavarianBeast]

Somebody was generous enough to drag your ass into the club? Damn.

[rage2]

The new flags work great. Tested them extensively to make sure it doesn't damage the car. Pretty quiet going 160 too! Threw them on for Game 6.

Kinda pricey at $20 a pop.

[ExtraSlow]

2x$20 is expensive for flags when you've dropped $100k+ on the car you are installing them on. :bigpimp:

Big downside to having indoor parking downtown for work, my truck is too tall to have the flag installed on it. :bullshit:

[Moonracer]

Have the same problem with my garage at home. I have two flags and went to put them on only to realize they won't clear the door on the way in or out :( I'd have to put them on and take them off all the time.
