Would driving a remote control car on the beach be bad for it?

Question

I live on the beach, and I have a nice remote control car, and I don't know if the salt from the sand would damage my RC car.

Answer 1

Don't recommend it. In spite of any tv commercials, most rc cars are not sealed. Sand would get into the gears and cause a problem. Moisture too, if you run it on a wet beach. Salt is probably the least concern, since electronics and water don't mix at all.
