RedBull Soapbox Race 2022! - The Snowmobilers
I was invited to race in the RedBull Soapbox Race! This was such a fun event from making our idea come to life, building the craft, and race day itself! We converted an old go-kart to a soapbox car that looks like a snowmobile! Tons of grinding, welding, blood, sweat and tears went into this build! Huge thanks to Ryan and Randy Kruse for helping tremendously during the build process and a big thanks to everyone else involved in making this thing come to life as well! This was such a cool opportunity and I am so glad we were able to be a part of it!
Race Results: We were team 30/45 to go down the hill and when we went, we were tied in 3rd place for a while, until some other teams went after us and beat our score (knocking us off the podium). We came to the conclusion that we probably placed somewhere around 7th or 8th overall.
