Event Details

On October 4, Red Bull Soapbox Race will come screeching into Cincinnati's Mount Adams area as 40 teams put their skills to the test driving homemade human-powered soapbox cars down the urban 1/4-mile "track". They'll be challenged with steep descents, turns, and ultimately, the clock as they strive for soapbox stardom and a place at the podium.

This isn't your average boy scout derby though. Teams at Red Bull Soapbox Race are judged on three criteria - speed, creativity and showmanship. So while engineering skills are needed to build brakes and steering components, someone on the team is gonna need to think outside the box and add a little flair to the vehicle. In other words, don't be surprised if you see an oversized lobster, a Viking ship or even an ice cream sundae cruising down the track.

Red Bull Soapbox Race is a FREE event. Gates open at 11am, first race at 1pm.
