The Avon Dassett Soapbox Derby
Available for over a year
The Avon Dassett Soapbox Derby is a local competition where handmade gravity-powered carts are put together and compete to race down a hill as fast as possible, sometimes reaching speeds of 40-50 mph. Vic Minett speaks to the fearless current champion Brian Stanford, who is raising money for Breast Cancer UK, and one of the Derby's organisers, Sarah Richardson.
