On a sunny spring day, soap box cars with names like the Blazing Turtles, the Raider Racers, the Full Send Vipers and the Tower of Pizza took off and sped down the racetrack that started near the intersection of Glenwood Ave. and Fox St. Racers plunged down the road, crossing a bridge over the Flint River and finally ending at the finish line near Kettering University. The annual race is a component of a larger program that provides hands-on STEM learning in a collaborative environment that builds community partnership.
