Hey John, just saw your post. Beach driving is very simular to Hatteras Island sand. Just air down as you normally would and you'll be fine. There are some skinny sections so know your tides. If going to Portsmouth, be extra carefull around the cabins as there are lots of pipes and obstacles from the cabins that were never cleaned up after the storm. I ususally just stay on the back road to get around the cabin area. Lookout I have not been to in a couple years, but sand there is very soft. Let us know how you make out on your trip
