ies, er, cars belongs to 10year-old Culpeper resident Richard Fellows, who was actually lucky to survive long enough for inspection. “When I took the car apart and took the bolt out,” he said, “the spring went flying into the air, so I just ducked and covered.”
Then there was the trickiness of getting the car to handle properly. “I had a problem with the steering, because the way the cable was, when the wheels were straight, the handles weren’t straight.”
Which is why his younger brother, R.J., might not be following in his brother’s footsteps next year when he becomes eligible to race. “It looks scary,” he said.
The race starts at 7 a.m. at the track on Blue Ridge Avenue in Culpeper, in front of Yowell Park, with racers ranging in age from 8 to 17 and competing in stock, super stock and masters division. For more information, visit culpepersoapboxderby.com.
