Green Flag Racing

About this game

This racing game comes with a unique game board - a NASCAR track printed on a large green flag. The mechanics are straightforward roll-and-move, but several interesting drafting rules are included to give players meaningful choices. Players are encouraged to race multiple cars, and it is suggested that one neutral "pack car" be in the race for every player. As a result, there are usually ten to fifteen cars dashing around the track, which helps the game simulate the "tradin' paint" feel of stock car racing. The game does not come with cars, but Matchbox (or similarly-sized) cars work very nicely. Flags were made for Texas International and Pocono Speedway, among others.
