Im having a lil trouble finding materials to make flags from for the KB track day.
I either need some pretty hardy material around 600 mm wide that I can cut into 900mm strips or ready made flags
Anyone with ideas would be good to hear from ya's

Geof. I can HIRE sets of flags anytime I want to.
But they come in sets so for my6 red flags Id need to geet 5 sets
Anyhoo In the big picture Id like to refine the system at taupo then take the show on the road -Hampton downs /manfeild/ruapuna etc.

Can't find material for flags?! You can't be looking very hard!
We used to buy drill cotton from fabric stores to make flags for the rugger. It's like $10/m. 1m will probably make you 4 decent sized flags. A couple of vivids is all you need to turn a white flag into a chequered flag.

I diddnt think the fabric would be hardy enough to be honest

Fancy flags are made of silk, but you will find most (including the club flags) are made of drill cotton.
