NEVADA CITY, CALIF. — They go by names like Torpedo of Truth, Cinderella Story, Bull Shifters, Scrub Team and Quaker Hill Gang. Their goal: to build the greatest soapbox vehicle ever and win the race down Nimrod Street on June 13, 2015. The annual Nevada City Adult Soapbox Derby invites participants to be creative and have a good time — 42 teams have signed up for the event which includes a beer garden and festivities beyond the finish line. If you can make it to the Sierra foothills an hour outside of Sacramento by car, you’ll have a good time seeing this one-of-a-kind adults only race. Proceeds benefit local parks.
