Event Description
This car building game is the ultimate in teamwork, skill, development, use of resources, and trust as teams build various styles of cars. NASCAR has nothing to compare with these racers! Your teams will build and decorate a car that will race against time and other entries to see who will get to the Winner’s Circle. Just like professional racing, the Rickety Rackety Car Derby program is about the crew and driver.
Successful car building requires total teamwork including problem-solving, creativity, focused leadership, thoughtful decision making and clear assignment of each team member’s role and responsibilities. As the car takes shape, teams are ready to test drive, detail and make final mechanical adjustments before the big race
The climax of this Indy style event is when teams present their “Tricked Out” cars at the starting line. Drivers then race through a series of qualifying heats. Each win gets them closer to the checkered flag that will determine which race teams will be crowned champions!
Your team building event comes complete with sound, music, decorations, and awards for the top two teams, plus all necessary car building supplies and tools.

Rave Reviews From Clients
We couldn’t be more satisfied with our Rickety Rackety Derby experience. Your team responded quickly and were able to scale up or down based upon the meeting size. This tied in directly to the theme of our meetings. At one location, we were asked to quiet down by a meeting going on next door we were having too much fun
I’ve received nothing but good feedback on the car derby. We did a survey and everyone gave the team building activity a great rating! They hope that we do something similar next year. Thanks again!
Everything was great and everyone really enjoyed themselves. Your patience, professionalism, and responsiveness from pre-planning to event execution was wonderful. Thank you for always being available to us for conference calls and to answer our many questions. It’s always a pleasure to work with true event professionals.
Professional and really engaged with our team! Looked like your chefs love what they do. You can see it and feel it! Our mission and goal were achieved!
Today was an awesome event! Our employees loved it! Paul was amazing! Thank you very much for the organized chaos! C’mon Down - Love it!”
Amazing! The event was a HUGE success! Everything was perfect – the participants thoroughly enjoyed themselves. I can’t say enough about how well it went. The word is already flying around the office about the success of the program and we already have another group thinking about using this program for an event of their own!
