The Super Kids Race is an opportunity for children with special needs to come out and experience a Soap Box Derby. Each kid raced a derby car along with a co-pilot from the sanctioned races to help steer the cars.
Assistant director Kevin Maloney helped construct and design the derby cars for today's event.
"It just gives the Super Kids a chance to feel what it's like to run a Soap Box Derby track," Maloney said. "It gives them a chance to be independent, to feel their speed going down the hill and just have a good time."

Free food and drinks were also apart of the race activities.
