I grew up in a small town in the Midwest which, like thousands of others in North America, hero of a soapbox derby every summer. When I was 10, my dad helped me retool my radio flyer wagon into a sleek, snazzy soapbox racer. We spent to improve the Centre of gravity evenings and weekends putting ball bearings in the wheels, Lowe ring the chassis, and removing the wagon tongue (he insisted on that, to prevent puncturing my sternum, should the unforeseen occur). We replaced it with a cut-away dragster-style steering wheel.

Each July since 1936, the hills of Derby downs in Akron Ohio have been home to the all American soap box Derby World Championships.

A race can have only one winner, and it wasn’t me. But Dad and I built racer together, and hey what there at the finish line, grinning as if it what.
