On Friday we were to compete in a soap box derby race that was to be held sans hill… it was to be part of sports day. So, we put together a car that we thought would win and put it against the rest of the challengers. We did fairly well until about halfway through the race when the car veered off the track and the rear wheel mount broke. We couldn’t fix it and win (it was only a 400m race) so we decided to finish the race the only way we could. We decided to carry the car to the finish line. It was fun and we had alot of people watching us carry the car in. Its a shame we didn’t remember to yell out “Cool Runnings!” as we approached the finish line. Somebody started a slow clap and the whole thing ended up turning out quite funny in the end. Below is a before and after photo.
