To be honest I am running out of little history titbits so if any body has sometihng they want to share please message me with the details and I can add it to these posts.
This one is a bit recent. We had a race meeting yesterday (Sunday) with some very fine and close racing. All the drivers are honing skills getting ready for the upcoming championships at the end of September when we invite our fellow racers from Albany to join us.
I have attached a couple of videos for you guys to enjoy. Some of our experienced racers as well as some newer driver and a visitor going for a ride in the Tandy.

Before this social media thing become big, we used to do displays at all the car shows and some events held during the year when we could. We would get some members together and set up a stand to meet the public, talk about Soapbox, hand out flyers with our details, and try and gain new members. I did a few of these myself and had a wonderful time meeting the people. In fact, it was one of these displays that got me back into Soapbox when I attended a car show in 2015, the same year Frozen come out, after that chance meeting I joined my son up and the Perth Soapbox Club became a huge part of my life, and I love every minute of it.

A few years ago, to put to rest the argument of weights and
people saying heavier is better the club would run an ‘All
Up Weight’ day. The boxes were weighed as usual, then the
driver was weighted. When added together the heaviest
combination was then used, and everyone could add weight
to their boxes to achieve this maximum weight. The weight
had to be secure and safe. The result was the drivers
that had success normally had success on these days as well.
Thus, concluding that the combined weight of driver and
soapbox means very little. Not sure when the day was
cancelled but I believe it also had issues of some drivers
adding 50+kg to their soapbox and not being able to handle it.
