I've seen the 'Red Bull Box Kart Race' in London, England, where you can run through slopes at explosive speed even if it breaks with your own unique kart.

In the 1950s, energy drink maker Red Bull hosted a large-scale box kart race around the world, with a ' box kart ' race that originated from American children entering soap boxes and sliding down slopes. In Japan, ' Red Bull Box Kart Race Osaka 2022 ' will be held on Saturday, October 22, 2022. So, to find out what a box kart race looks like, I went to see the Red Bull Box Kart Race London on July 2, 2022 (World Standard Time) in London, England.

You can understand the situation of the venue by reading the following article.

The 'Red Bull Box Kart Race', which runs on slopes more flashy than anyone else with a self-made car that moves with 'human beings and gravity', opens in the UK, and the venue looks like this --GIGAZINE

Doors open at 10:30 local time. Many spectators gathered at the venue.

Four judges boarded the judges' seats on the double-decker bus. Each judge will score a maximum of 10 points for the performance at the start.

The MC will be the moderator at the starting point.

You can watch the race on the huge monitors located at each point of the venue.

The first team 'Hagrid Flyers' has arrived. With a box cart with the Harry Potter series as a motif ...

Perform at the starting point.

Judges evaluate performance on the panel. Some spectators also booed, saying, 'The score is too low!'

Up to 2 people can ride in the box cart. Hagrid and Potter boarded in, and Dr. Dumbledore and Lord Voldemort pushed the box cart to start.

Hagrid and Potter go on the first slope with a splash of water.

I ran through the course that was squeaky with the steering wheel, and proceeded to the goal at once with only gravity.

Behind the starting point, there are a lot of box carts waiting for their turn.

Since it is sponsored by Red Bull, a box cart with F1 as a motif has also appeared. I will explode the course while letting blue smoke fly.

If you hit a slope or an obstacle, the box cart will also be damaged by the impact. The box cart with the motif of the movie ' Top Gun ' is when you plunge into a puddle on the first slope ...

The missile on the wing has blown off.

The staff will collect the fragments of the box cart. Between the hay block and the fence was a piece of a box cart that was damaged while driving.

In some cases, the exterior will come off completely while running the course.

The audience cheers as the box cart breaks and captures the course.

After passing the last speed camera ...

I plunged into the hay at the goal and stopped. A box cart that is overturned by the impact.

The staff rushed to collect the box cart immediately. Participants who were driving wave their hands to the spectators.

The exterior of the box cart after the goal was completely removed, leaving only the frame.

A box cart with the 'Top Gun' motif was also placed after the goal. The tip was broken and the main wing was also peeled off, but it remained relatively original.

I ran through the course safely and my friends smiled with joy.

And the last team started.

The podium will be assembled at the starting point in a hurry.

Two minutes after the last team runs, the awards ceremony will begin. The sponsor BOSCH Award winner was ' Supercar Blondie '. He is a famous influencer in the United Arab Emirates and also operates a YouTube channel that introduces luxury cars.

And the 1st to 3rd place was announced. The first place was 'Go Go Gadget Soapbox' with the motif of the popular overseas anime ' Inspector Gadget'.

The Red Bull Box Kart Race has come to an end with a grand champagne.
