Congrats to all our champions and their pit crews!!! It was a fun and successful race day and all went well.  Yesterday started off will some big dark clouds in the sky and thoughts of whether or not the race could go on.  But, no worry the clouds passed after a little wait and we had a day full of excitement.  The crowd was the biggest and best yet, drawing possibly from other 4th of July events down the street (the car show, parade, and stereo sound off).  It was commented that we may have seen the most wrecks ever, due to the slick pavement that dried quickly from the hot sunshine.  No need to worry, no one was injured. The only advice I can give next year to the drivers is after you hit the finish line: BREAK!!!  Or if you go through the hay bails on the side of the track: BREAK!!!  Overall, it was a great day of fun racing and we must stop to thank all those whom sponsored us, some year after year like Great Lakes Chemical and AmerCable.  And most importantly, a BIG thanks to our volunteers who come out and work the race.  You are what makes the biggest difference in the South Arkansas Soap Box Derby.  Thank you!

Check out the Links Page to get to the downloadable information on the 2004 Stock Car Plans from the All American Soap Box Derby.  Also, is a link to parts and such.  I've updated some info, such as the previous sponsors and last year's champs pages. If I missed something, please let me (Cherie) know.    I've gotten the event posted in the Chamber calendar,  the eldoark.com calendar, and some other local website calendars.  If you know of one I missed, let me know. I hope y'all are all getting excited about the upcoming races. See you soon. -cherie bright

We're starting to gear up for the 6th annual South Arkansas Soap Box Derby.  Be sure to check back by for announcements and updates every so often.  You may even see pictures of you or someone you know who is participating or helping out in some way with this event.  We are proud and thankful for the continued support of the El Dorado Jaycees.  Without this wonderful organization the South Arkansas Soap Box Derby would not be the success it is. See you this summer! - Cherie & Rudy

Thank you to all those who volunteer your time to the South Arkansas Soap Box Derby. Without you this would not be a successful event.
