Bernardston Soapbox Race Info
Racers will start on Eden Trail, which merges with West Mountain Road and ends near South Street. The course is a little over a 1/2 mile long for adults, and at the hard right where Eden Trail merges with West Mountain Road adult racers can expect speeds of up to 50 MPH or more. The final straightaway will be lined with chearing fans, and vendors. There will be announcers on a platform overlooking the track near the finish line.
This website is constantly being updated. Come back frequently, especially as race day draws near.
