Seattle Power Tool Race & Derby 2007
Published by Rob Flickenger June 24th, 2007 in Events, Inventions
Yesterday was 2nd annual Seattle Power Tool Race & Derby at the Georgetown block party. It was a fantastic day full of speed, danger, and grinding metal. Two 60′ tracks of plywood and two-by-fours were the proving ground for dozens of insanely creative racing machines made from modified power tools.
Hackerbot Labs entered four racers this year, including The Edger, Unicorn Offender (née Unicorn Chaser), The Green Machine, and the very popular Lady Safety. Hackerbot Labs won a coveted trophy for overall creative effort.
The main events included drag racing, tractor pull, ski-ball, stunt jumping, and smash-the-abandoned-car derby. A very good time was had by all.
Here are my photos from the event, and here are a bunch more.
