In simple terms, a soapbox race is one involving non-motorised vehicles, wherein amateur drivers challenge each other with their hand-made vehicles and plummet them down a hill with gravity being the only fuel. They also need to dodge obstacles along the way and try to record the fastest time to win the competition.

The race was first held in 2000 in Brussels, Belgium, and has been organised in more than 52 countries, including the likes of UK, Spain, Italy, USA, France and Germany among others. The event boasts of more than 4.5 million spectators.

The central thrust of the race is creativity and entertainment. Participants are encouraged to create the wackiest designs for their cars, often also wearing matching costumes as part of the overall performance.
