We had two evenings in September 2004, creating karts for racing outside the Scout HQ. The evenings were very successful and enabled the Scouts to work in patrols to build the karts from kits given to them.

The design of the kart was very similar to that of the one on our soap box derby site here.

The patrols of Scouts were given the materials and some instructions, from which they worked very well together to construct their kart. On the second evening, lots of the Scouts brought along paint and decorations to cover their karts ready for racing.

A very successful night.
