General

• 
  There are no specific rules regarding the design of a soap box kart except that it needs to be a push kart with no drive mechanisms. Don’t forget that we will have some karts available, in all races not everyone is racing at the same time.

• Karts should ideally have some form of braking system to assist in stopping the kart at the bottom of the hill.
  Helmets need to be worn at all times

• Karts can have a maximum of 2 pushers and 1 driver.

• Teams can be organised at the event and can comprise of members from different troops.

Sprint

• This will be a simple race along the track between 2 karts. Races will be timed and the fastest kart wins.

• The sprint will be for teams of 3 members.
  Endurance

• As it is an endurance race where drivers and pushers can be changed throughout the race at the end of each lap. Races will be endurance races of 5 mins. The course will be a ring layout, up and down the course.

• In the endurance race you can have a team size of 3 upwards. Ideal as a Troop race.

Relay

• This will be a race from the top of the course to the bottom and back. Teams will need to carry a baton from one end to the other and will need to swap team members at each end. The course will be in a ring layout comprising of straights, chicanes and obstacles. If there is only 3 in a team then the members will have to swap positions on the kart at each end (e.g. driver swaps with pusher).

• In the relay you can have a team size of 3 upwards. Ideal as a Troop race.

If the demand is high, there may be a leader’s race.

It should also be understood that the sole purpose of this event is to have fun. Emphasis is placed on participation, not winning and is designed to be a fun afternoon out.
