Competitors in their rackety go-karts defied the dangers as they weaved their way through Beccles for the town's second Soapbox Derby.

More than 20 teams tackled the course, filled with ramps and obstacles, on Station Road.

Large crowds watched and cheered along the course, with more following the action from a big screen in New Market.

Su Caver, of Home Support Matters which is based by the finish line of the race track, said: "It was a truly fantastic celebration of our community.

"The creativity of the soapbox designs, the large crowds, and the incredible atmosphere made the whole day unforgettable."
