Notes:
-This was the first ever Thunder on the Beach event put on by the New Jersey Hot Rod Association, in cooperation with the United States Hot Rod Association and Monster Jam.
-A lot of drivers were unsure of how to properly prepare their trucks for the sandy track, and it showed as a lot of a drivers seemed to lose traction or even lose power during their runs.
-This was a very unusual weekend in that Dennis Anderson competed in two different Grave Digger trucks this weekend, Grave Digger VII and Grave Digger III. After being dissatisfied with the way Grave Digger VII handled the beach course in this event, Anderson brought in the older Grave Digger III to compete in Day 2.
