Thunder In The Sand!

Story and Photos by: Scott Lukatis

Sun, sand, surf, and quad racing? That’s right—for the past several years the seaside resort town of Wildwood, New Jersey, has hosted the Thunder in the Sand Beach race. Promoted by Thunder Motorsports, the event is held late in the spring and then again in the early fall before and after the throngs of sunbathers converge on the Jersey Shore for summertime fun. The temporary track is built right on the beach and features all of the obstacles normally found on any race track around the country. The spring event was held over the final weekend in May and had nearly 400 quad riders including a full 20-man Quad A gate. In that A class, Yamaha-mounted Pat Brown was the class of the field defeating Donald Lysinger and Richard Lindsay for the top step on the podium. Your chance at racing on the beach comes again this fall on October 9-11. You can go to www.thundermoto.com for more information.
