Stop by any of our races and check things out for yourself. We generally start racing at 9am and finish by 3pm, if your child is at least 7 or able to demonstrate they can steer and brake the car they can take a test run down the track. We have cars that you can borrow for the day or longer if needed. If you prefer you can stop by a racing families home and see their soap box derby car and they can answer your questions. Contact Race Director Stan Iglehart at greaterchicago@soapboxderby.org or Assistant Race Director Devin Smith at greaterchicagoassistantdirector@soapboxderby.org for specific questions. You can text or call Stan at 630-841-8832. Otherwise visit our Getting Started page for more information on how to get started as a Soap Box Derby racer.
