Soap Box Racer Overview:

Teamwork plays a big role in this Mission. You'll partner up with a small crew of fledgling automotive engineers to assemble and tune up a smooth-rolling and quick-swerving chassis. Then you'll repurpose some premium quality junk to soup up your customized ride and draw in the fans.

'Cause you must be fast and you must look cool when you and your pit crew take the green flag at the BIY Grand Prix. Let's hit the road!
