Default RE: Tanks and sand...


ORIGINAL: Ern

Did I read on here that tanks and beaches don't mix well? Thinking of taking mine to Florida with me this year but don't want to ruin it. What can go wrong or be damaged by running them in sand and are there remedies? Mine is a Tiger with metal upgrades and nephew has stock Bulldog with metal gear and plastic tracks if weight matters...
I would stay out of the soft deep sugar sand but even if the tanks are sealed your going to have to PM them anyway! My Pershing did very well at the Forth of July 2 years ago, but I bet the Bulldog will do the best with its high center of gravity, and I have done some tesing going through water and sand with that!
