Illegal San Fernando Valley Soapbox Racer Dies In Collision

We first heard about The San Fernando Valley Illegal Soap Box Federation last year. The downhill antics seemed fairly safe and totally fun, but just recently there's been a tragic accident. Reportedly, during a race, one of the soapboxes lost control and ran into a parked Lexus, killing the racer. The future of the SFVISBF is in limbo. [CBS2 KCAL]
