Special Division
"I was browsing through all the
NDR.ORG sites and looked through
yours.  My comment is for the
Special Division. That's really great
to see the Special Division going
strong.  I was the Special Division
National Champ in 1989-90, &
1995.  Congrats to all racers and
good luck in future races to come.  
Great site too!!!"
Cleveland is very proud its Special
Division Drivers.  Each one is already a
winner.  These children out the true
spirit of Soap Box Derby Racing:  
COMPETITION, FRIENDSHIP,
COMPASSION, and FUN !!!

Each Special Division Driver is
assigned an experienced driver as a
co-pilot.  The racer is able to
participate in the driving of the car to
their own abilities.  The dual control
cars ensure that the co-pilot can
individually control all aspects of the
car (steering and braking) if necessary.  
Our custom made cars are designed
with over-sized brakes and foot and
hand brake controls.
If your child would like more
information about racing in our
Special Division please contact Beth

Cleveland Racers Designed and
built the original Dual Control
Race Cars used for Special Needs
Programs around the country
                                             Sponsoring a Special Needs Car is a very
rewarding experience for the child and sponsor as well. These cars are
driven by a child with special needs and an experienced driver at the
same time. The joy that the dual control cars bring to our handicapped
drivers is stunning. Trophies are also given for this division.

The car you sponsor will be painted with your name or company logo at
no additional charge to you. You can display the sponsored car as you
wish during non racing events. If you would like more information on how
to participate in sponsorship, please contact us.
A real Winner!

Special Needs Racing
Began In Cleveland

Labor Day weekend we
brought our son out for the first
time for your Special Division
Races..  What a great time.  
Our son had a blast and hasn't
stopped talking about it..  He
shows everyone that comes
over his trophy from his racing
and tells them all about it.. We
can't tell you what this has done
for him and for us as a family to
see him this excited about
something!  Thank you so
much for having a program like
this and for all of your
volunteers who made this such
a fantastic and memorable
experience for our son.. We
look forward to bringing him
back again!
