That sucks, test has been pretty good the past few years. Everything else basically unchanged? Is there still snow underneath the sand? The main dragstrip under water?

wonder how deep the water is on the drag strip?  Looks like a couple of feet at least.

the big main drag strip is useless so far this year.  Maybe by mid summer the edge will be dry.  The only place to run right now is the entrance to the beach.

I have been to a sand drag raceway to observe last year, and hopefully this year I will be running for sure.


Ya, he had to go back to camp and take a hot shower before he could come back out and resume his activities.  He sunk it on opening day.  Saturday there was another fullsize truck that got so stuck in another hole that 4 other trucks got stuck trying to pull him out, and eventually had to call in the sand wrecker tow truck to get him out.

The tow truck also got stuck pulling him out.

I was there saturday. It was a nice day for the begining of april. It was great to be out playing in the sand again. The hills have changed a little, not too much.
