What is a Soapbox?
For the uninitiated, soapboxes are vehicles without engines that move forward solely thanks to the force of gravity. Made of wood or metal, these small, homemade speedsters are equipped with wheels, a steering wheel and brakes to ensure a minimum of control on slopes. Although some are built for recreational descents, others are developed for real sports competitions where every detail counts to maximize speed.
