Barrow Soapbox Derby 2024
17 August 2024
Venue: Barrow Town Centre
Website: https://barrowbid.co.uk/soapbox/
The racing will start at around 10am as Soapbox Kart number 1 sets off racing down the town centre course using only gravity to set the first time of the day. This time will set the benchmark for teams to beat as we see an array of hand-built Soapbox racers speeding down Dalton Road in Barrow town centre. The ramp will be located at the top of Dalton Road (Outside the Entertainer) with the pits situated behind this structure, enabling the public to view and interact with the teams and their karts during the day. The racing is due to be completed at around 5pm, followed by a presentation which will take place at the finish stage, with prizes awarded for a number of categories, including fastest kart and joker of the day.
