There has been much talk of creating an annual race, many may even remember the Pram Races around the town…..the Soapbox Challenge will be equally exciting and a call out to local high schools, businesses, community & sports groups or just a gathering of friends with a wacky enthusiasm to apply to build and race their Soapbox in a timed race down King Street.

Teams will consist of driver and four additional crew members, they will be allocated a ‘pit’ area on the market place as a space where they can showcase their vehicle and raise funds for their chosen charity/good cause, the Market Place will also have additional entertainment and food stalls,

A full vehicle build specification and race rules & regulations will be provided on application to race. Teams are encouraged to use the opportunity to raise funds through sponsorship and other opportunities for their good cause, and similarly that teams enter into the spirit of the Challenge and theme their vehicle and race wear.

To apply to enter contact David Brooks – email: davidbrooks@thetfordtowncouncil.gov.uk deadline for entries is 17^th March 2017.
