It seems our information was correct. Deep Throat got the word from Huggy Bear, who passed the secret along through the Matrix. As a result, a good crowd was on hand this weekend to watch the 2006 running of the Illegal Soapbox Derby Races atop Bernal Speedway in San Francisco.
Our photos from the scene follow, in a pathetic attempt to capture some of fearsome intensity generated by this gravity-fueled road duel.
Be advised: After the race the Telstar Logistics executive team met in closed session with the advanced technology unit of Nikolas Weinstein Studios, and an agreement was promptly reached to begin development on a car that will be complete in time to enter the races next year. So mark your calendars! We hope see you out on the track on Sunday, Sunday! SUNDAY! October 28, 2007.
Be there! Be there! Be there!

I've raced that "hill" you guys race with a push start...weak. The SFVISBF challenges any and all to come race with us in 2007. Go to the site, watch the videos, know we do it for real in the valley.
