PICTURES: 'Incredible' Soapbox Derby in Welton deemed a success by organisers

The White Horse Pub cart also featured two pint-drinking punters and a blow up doll of the landlady

Among the new records set was a new highest speed with one soapbox hitting 36mph through the speed trap, 4mph quicker than the previous record.

In total 46 teams participated with a total of 111 runs down the track completed, which was another record.

Race organiser Chris Barlow said: "It was incredible, it just gets better and better every year.

One soapbox was based on the White Horse Pub where the start line of the race was located

"We saw so many different carts and there is very little repetition and lots of teams have reinvented themselves year on year."

Another record to tumble was the fastest circuit time.

One cart's design which caught the eye was a replica of the White Horse pub in Welton, where the race's start line was situated.

The back end depicted the pub itself, while the front of the cart mimicked the interior and the drivers were even able to sip their pints while riding down the circuit, accompanied by a blow up doll with a photo of the landlady stuck onto it.

The race attracted entrants from the Isle of Wight who drove to Welton early on Saturday morning and returned home on the day.

Planning for next year's edition is already underway with Chris confirming the 2018 edition will take place on June 30.
