SOAP BOX DERBY 2002 START-UP CLINIC REVIEW
By: Nick Ellis (1970 Detroit Champ)

Now that’s entertainment…the 2002 start-up clinic was an overwhelming success!! A homerun out of the park!!

Everyone who was someone in the derby was there! It was just fantastic to see so many people interested in the derby. I don’t know who was more excited about being there, my son or I?

The children met, and talked to the world champ, as well as had a chance to climb into his racer. There were prizes, games and the best snacks this side of the Mississippi. What more could a person want?

The clinic director, Joe Flynn and his lovely wife, even had a Power Point presentation for the mom’s and dad’s. To sum it up, “it was just like the old times”. The Soap Box Derby is alive and well in the Metro Detroit area.
