WHY RACE? Because it's FUN! 

The premise of Cubmobile is classic Scouting fun at its finest: your Cub Scout and parent build a soapbox derby-style car that the Cub Scout can drive. They can then race it as many times as possible during their time slot!

Win some, lose some. What could be better? Cars race two at a time, as often as time allows, on a closed, gently sloped course at the Evanston Civic Center.  It’s a great way to spend an autumn Sunday with your Pack. 

We recommend that each den build its own Cubmobile. Building and painting your car(s) is a great team activity that can be performed outdoors. Cubmobiles can be as simple or spectacular as your den wishes, but they MUST have a seat, seat belt, brake, and steering mechanism. 

Cars take about four hours to build, less in a pinch.  Parts are easily obtained and need not be expensive or elaborate. 

Late and Walk-Up registration is allowed, but the late fee does apply.

FOR EVERYONE'S HEALTH AND SAFETY:

• Race Sessions are scheduled every 60 minutes, allowing up to 50 minutes of racing and 10 minutes of setup, with a maximum of 50 Cub Scouts per session.
• Each Scout MUST have their own helmet. No Helmet, no ride. NO EXCEPTIONS. We are unable to provide helmets or Cubmobiles as has been done in the past.
