They're Racing In Kingston, NY for The 27th Year

I myself have never attended a Soap Box Derby. I know, crazy that I have never seen a derby but a lot of people in my age group may have missed out when it comes to a lot of cool stuff. Hopefully, you have had the fun of being part of a Soap Box Derby Car build at some point. And then hopefully you got to race it.

Building a Soap Box Derby car is a lot of fun and a lot of hard work but great summer fun for the family who is up for it. Soap Box Derby has been around for a long time and there are a lot of people whose mission is to keep Soap Box Derbys alive.
