Has anyone driven their Stingray on Daytona Beach? Had an older Buick Regal on the beach but would love to drive my Stingray on the beach. Very slowly of course!!

Not on a regular basis. I'll be getting my Corvette out there at some point during an afternoon low tide so the sun is shining from behind when looking towards the ocean along with an off shore breeze. Here's my previous Roush Mustang.
