No beach schedule yet. The beach program is in conjunction with the Parks Dept., so between John being busy AND the bureaucracy, we're still in limbo.
I for one (as you all know) had a AWESOME time at T&L. Very "beach crowd" friendly because of VTA. It's the only track running them regularly. I turned my son's VTA into a 17.5 touring car recently, but I have another chassis to build up another VTA for him, and then we'll be back out there for VTA and TC. Looking forward to another trip. Excellent facility and a nice drive.

If you weren't, starting this weekend we're doing full USVTA rules. We were running 21.5's before.

Great day yesterday! Thank you John and crew. Congrats to my son Justin on his TT01 win! Also had a really good time with the Action RC crew at Golden Corral. Jared and Vincent will eat anything for a quarter - like Gummi Bear salad and Cotton Candy Mac & Cheese. Good times! 
Now let's get some beach racing going!

I just want to Thank John and the Crew from Brownies as well as Al and his crew from Jackson Raceway for putting on an excellent show once again
As a footnote,
Al you remind me of someones BAD Uncle who will pay a Kid to eat anything for money
Those faces they made were priceless!

If you were there why didn't you walk over to John and ask him about the beach in person?
No I wasn't, and I'm bummed about it, but other things came up.
I'm anxious to run at the beach also but I'm sure John gets 10 questions a day about it, so I'm not gonna bother him.

No one wants to bother John with beach racing reminders - especially during a busy day like the TCS race. As you mentioned, JIML, we (me, you, Mike and everyone else here) just want it to happen. Maybe a question or comment just seems like pestering John, but it certainly isn't the intent. We all just want to race with our toes in the sand.
It's unfortunate that you couldn't make the TCS - it was a great day. Maybe next time. Not sure if it helped quench my thirst for the beach - or just made me thirstier. I think it's the latter.
