Excuse the off topic post but it is Friday, and this does involve "cars" and racing.

I am involved this year (again) in the Canary Derby adult soapbox race here in Victoria BC. Its a fund raising event involving local companies (mostly tech type) constructing and racing gravity powered cars. The money goes to the Canary Foundation, for research in early cancer detection.

Last year was lots of fun, this years should be better, more companies entered. The race is on June 16, see here for info: www.canaryderby.com

and here for the blog I am keeping to provide any novice builders with a little guidance:
