With DERBY*GOKIT® the only limitation for your gravity racer or slalom racer is your imagination.
Just the basics (with slight modifications).
DERBY*GOKIT® provides plans, dimensions and templates for a "BASIC" racer. The red racer at the left is constructed exactly as described in the plans included in the kit, it is referred to as a "BASIC" racer. The final racer constructed would depend on the materials, tools and skills of the builder. The racers shown below illustrate the flexibility DERBY*GOKIT®allows to promote creativity of the participant.
DERBY*GOKIT® brings out the creative side in kids of all ages, including adults.

The chassis of the "rail", shown below, is constructed from metal tubing. Note that the "rail" is even driven differently.
The shell of the Black #2 soap box racer was formed using sheel metal.
Fiberglass soapbox?
The 'basic' racer design was used to support the wire screen form for the fiberglass. The screen is stapled to the wood frame.
