Sandy sandwiches too....I agree with ninnon. Sounds like fun but the after-run maintenance is never enough to keep it in good condition.
Sand and salt is a bad combination for these things.
...but the salt on the sandwich is usually not a problem.Sandy sandwiches too....

I know what you're saying......but the salt on the sandwich is usually not a problem.
I've eaten Sandy.Nothing worse than a sandy sandwich I always say.LOL
just wondering what are trophy points
Sand gets everywhere- it's like Rolex- wherever you hide, he'll always find you....I ran my Tmaxx at the beach and it had been raining. I ran through a water puddle on the sidewalk and got it wet. Then the sand stuck to the teeth of the clutch bell and completely ground them off. So as if i didn't learn the first time, later on I took my Revo to the beach and the same thing happened again. I would not take them again unless I could enclose the gears to prevent sand from getting on them. And as the others have said here, it's not a good thing to get sand on your car at all.
Your right- grease and oil mix with the sand and act together as a liquid sandpaper (gettit )From experience I've learned that if you wish to run any machinery in a Sandy environment you'll want to decrease everything and use a dry lubricant such as graphite....
Dont put grease on anything as sand will stick...better to degrease and let the sand just fall away....yes it will eat up parts but that's what sand does....
When riding dirtbikes or quads etc in sand you never want an oiled chain as it will be toast in minuets
