Well, they did it again. The Conshohocken Soap Box Derby crossed the finish line on its 75th edition this past Fourth of July, and the racers picked the hottest race day since 2002 to do it. Seventy-five years of gravity, plywood, and neighborhood glory. That is not a stretch of tradition you sneeze at.
Winners have been posted by MoreThanTheCurve, and if you scrolled Instagram Thursday night you already know the July 3 fireworks over the Schuylkill went off without a hitch. A good weekend for the borough, all things considered, given the flash flood watch now hanging over the region.
Full results and a race-day recap are up at MoreThanTheCurve.
