PDX Adult Soapbox Derby 2022

- Highlights from Portland, Oregon's very own 2022 Adult Soapbox Derby.
Started in the summer of 1997, every year racers climb to the top of Mt Tabor to race their creations. All cars are gravity powered only, all hand built by teams. The race is entirely volunteer ran, and one of the best events in Portland!
The event is free to watch and usually attracts upwards of 10,000 people. It's about a mile long track from the top of Mt. Tabor to the finish line around reservoir 5.
Fun fact: Mt Tabor is an extinct volcano now a century old forested public park in Portland. It has beautiful open air reservoirs and amazing views of the city.

"The Wagon Queen Family Truckster"!!!
Too friggin' cool!!!
"You think you hate it now, but wait 'til you drive it."
Too funny.."wait till you drive it"
The national lampoon vacation station wagon was the best, they did a great job with authenticity and the dog leash had me laughing.
Honky Lips
I laughed out loud seeing the dog leash attached to the rear bumper of the Family Truckster. Nice touch.
I caught that too.😂
and dead Aunt Edna on the roof lol
Can't forget the "Mutt Cutts" van from *Dumb and Dumber* 4:20 lol
@@aspalovin You can see her at 1:46..Too much..LMAO...
Honky Lips on the rear passenger quarter panel too.
"Rollem up!"
The bloody-faced rabbit at the minute mark made me burst out laughing! All of them are amazing.
A lot of quality craftsmanship on display!
I think I speak for everyone who watches this, when I say, "I want to build one and join in on the fun".
The Griswold station wagon with corpse up top, honky lips, and the leash was absolutely priceless.
Nice to see something positive and fun out of Portland for a change.
The family truckster!
This is Awesome!!!
That was something...
Some very creative & funny RACE VEHICLES. "Adult Soapbox"
OMG I almost moved to Portland 11 years ago,,, now I almost HAVE to :P🤣
In Costa Rica. Missed it. This was such a great reminder of why PDX is so amazing!
That’s awesome! I love the slo-mo as they pass by. I made a video on my channel about the soapbox derby as well, but sadly you can’t see much details of the cars as it is drone footage only. I should have also done some filming on the ground.
The lil' green Willys Gasser with Ratfink driving didn't get enough attention.
That 10' foot long poop car, that's me. :D
The Shart Kart was the official name.
So bummed I missed this. Incredible work.
They even had Aunt Edna on the roof
Mutt Cutts from dumb and dumber 😂😂
This is too cool! 👍
#2's helmet shoulda been a peanut or a corn kernel!
The giant PeeWee Herman head was a little creepy 🤨
Pure Awesomeness! 🤠🇺🇸❤️
That one that looked like Pee-Wee Herman was downright scary. 😅
you have very good video, love it. see you in Bali my friend
The pizza planet truck!!!
Big Like !!
Niiiice
Ok that is cool....
Wish I had a life
I was thinking the same thing.😂😂
Where is this?
Mt Tabor, Portland, Oregon.
Didn’t know about this until today. I’ll want to check it out this August 19th.
Is this open to anyone or do you have to be a goan?
fun event...........the slow motion here ........makes it a little hard to watch........... a little too slow for a little too long...........................
I tried to do less slow motion and space it out with regular motion on my video from this year!
@@stinkspirit thank you..........good work.............fun stuff. wb
#2 @2:15 I can see you thinking that would be amusing, and then letting it go, to go through all the time and work to make a car and enter the race and still be thinking it's going to be funny. That's not a adult.
I'm not sure what you're getting at. That's my car. It was a blast. Little kids came up to it all day long and cautiously approached. One little 5 year old girl turned to her mom and said "mom, is that real poop?" It was hilarious. After the race I sold it to a guy who owns a waste management company. It's an adult soapbox derby so your assertion is inherently wrong. I'm an adult. by definition. :*
🥱
Lol, #2
That was my car. I came up with the name "the shart cart" and then on registration day we all drew our car numbers out of a hat and I drew #2. It was amazing. I felt like I was commanded by a higher power at that point to make a giant turd. 15 cans of expanding foam on chicken-wire later and a gallon of "Brown Velvet" paint from Home Depot and we were ready. :D
Well that was a waste of time.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Stupid slow motion. Ruins viewing.
😂apologies for ruining your day sir
@pookyhogan
watch again at 2× speed
It made it better.
Stupid comment too insignificant to ruin anything.
Where is this held at. Looks pretty fun
Annually in Portland at Mt Tabor park!
