Entitled: " Entrants in soapbox auto race during July 4th celebration at Salisbury, Maryland." The Soap Box is a youth soapbox car racing program which has been run in the United States since 1934. World Championship finals are held each July at Derby Downs in Akron, Ohio. Cars competing in this and related events are unpowered, relying completely upon gravity to move.
