Rules: All races are run according to All American Soap Box Derby rules.

Location of Track: CambridgeSide Mall, 100 CambridgeSide Place Cambridge, MA 02141

The races are in the Lower Garage of the Mall where we have raced in the past. The track is on a real hill on a sloped ramp in the garage, so we race with regular street racing ramps (the same ramps we use for our outdoor races). It is indoors but the garage has excellent air exchange and is therefore safer in terms of COVID. The garage has a 7-foot clearance; if you have not attended a rally at this location before and have a trailer that is taller than 7 feet, please contact us in advance for information about where to park your trailer.

Hotel: We have a hotel block at Hotel Marlowe (which is attached to the Mall) https://www.hotelmarlowe.com with rooms for $139/night. If you need the code for the hotel block, please reach out to arlingtonsoapboxderby@gmail.com.

Details: We will hold four races over the weekend, with two races on Saturday and two on Sunday. Each day will feature a double elimination race and a single elimination race.

CambridgeSide Winter Rally Series: We are holding four indoor rallies at the CambridgeSide Mall this winter, and will be keeping track of points earned by racers over the course of all four rallies (using the same system as the All American Rally Points) to track how racers are doing over the entire rally series. After our last rally, we will award overall series trophies to the top racers in each division for the entire series, in addition the ribbons awarded for the top places in each race.
