Gravity Racing Challenge Team
Magnolia Soap Box Derby
The Gravity Racing Challenge is a STEM Educational Collaborative sponsored by Middle Georgia State College. Through the gracious funding of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, the Gravity Racing Challenge is held in partnership with Macon’s annual Magnolia Soap Box Derby. Schools and youth organizations in Central Georgia are provided with race car kits, which are fine-tuned by each team as they prepare to make the fastest downhill run in a time-based competition during the annual Macon Magnolia Soap Box Derby. Westside’s “Seminole Spirit” racing team has proudly participated in this event every year since the first competition was held in Spring of 2015.
