The pull of gravity + the energy of a child = the fun of Soap Box Derby!

Just visiting fromm Wordless Wednesday....what a fun post!! We just don't have anything quite like this out here in California. Perfect for kids, and it rewards patience since it seems to take quite some time to get the car ready!
What fun! When I was a kid they did these races right by my house. Thanks for sharing and bringing back that memory for me. Happy WW. So glad you linked up.
There was actually just an article in my local newspaper yesterday about soap box derbies! They look like fun! Happy Wordless Wednesday! Thank you for sharing your photos.
That looked like a really fun event which I know I would surely enjoy!

I didn't even know that soapbox car events still existed this day in age. So cool that they still do! And awesome pictures!
That does look like fun! I've never seen one before - thanks for sharing the pics. Have a wonderful weekend, Paula!
I used to race Soap Box Derby cars (1996-2004)! Your pictures are awesome. Hope your racer did well.
