Mario Karts
Build a Soap Box Racer and compete in a time trial
Monday 29th May 2023 at 12.00 noon to 1pm
THE CHALLENGE… use your own materials to design and build a single seat ‘soap box’ to carry a child of your choice, propelled solely by an adult, around our course. Each team will compete separately, it’s not a race against other teams it’s a race against the clock!
THE THEME… for the karts is Mario (fancy dress optional!) PRIZES…for fastest time and best Mario themed kart.
This is NOT suitable for children under 7 years of age. All drivers must be between the age of 7 and 16 years and all propellers must be 18 or over.
THE RULES - the challenge will take place on the main road adjacent to the green, which will be closed to traffic, the soap box team to complete the course in the fastest time will win! Karts need to have four wheels, steerable and be single seated, the challenge is to safely drive your kart around our short route in the fastest time possible. Safety will be paramount so every cart will be scrutinised before the challenge and the driver and propellor should wear suitable protective clothing and headwear.
