Everyone woke up feeling refreshed at the dawn of the next day, and shortly after breakfast, they went outside to find the registration booth for the sandcastle making contest. George said as they walked, "Ahh... There's nothing like the smell of that sweet sea breeze and the sound of those gentle waves. I know you're all looking forward to being in the water again soon!" Laura replied, "Oh, yes! You bet we are, daddy George." Pattie said, "I also look forward to building our best sandcastle for this contest!" Ringo added, "And hopefully, we'll be able to win that submarine!" He then asked Sparkie, "Would you like to help us out, too, Sparks?" The hedgehog made a noise that sounded like he was saying, "Of course!" "Great!", replied Ringo. A while later, George remarked, "Speaking of which, I can now spot the place where we shall sign up!" Pattie replied, "Yeah, I can see it as well!" Laura and Ringo agreed. Before long, the group wrote down their names on the registration notebook. The prize itself was hidden so as to avoid spoiling it. And because one of those in charge was a Beatles fan, he asked George and Ringo for their autographs, to which they gladly accepted. With their place in the contest all settled, they continued walking by the seaside.

As expected in the morning that followed, George began his training for the rally. He also started to plan out how he'll teach Rotten Roderick a lesson he won't forget. "Are you sure this is a good idea, buddy?" Byron asked while he installed some additional lights on the back of the race car. "Trust me, mate; you'll be satisfied in seeing how it plays out tomorrow." replied a very confident George. Byron said, "If ye say so, then. I really admire how you didn't let the jerk tear you down, though. That's what I call inner strength!" George said, "Of course! It was my own way of showing him that he just messed with the wrong bloke." "Makes a load of sense to me!" Byron remarked. Shortly afterwards, George tested his car's speed by driving around the entire track for ten rounds. When that was successful, he did the same for the lights to make certain they were in proper working order.

The raceway tour was a blast, during which George and Byron told the girls more about their mutual love for the sport as well as watching some of the past rallies together with the former's family. "And in regards to what I'm gonna do for the main event, I'll be taking charge of the awarding ceremony. The grand prize being, of course, the Liverpool Rally Cup." Byron said as they finished sharing their stories. Laura replied, "Awesome! I was just about to ask that myself." Pattie said, "Yeah. I can also see how you and my husband became such close friends." George said, "Indeed, sweetheart. I should mention that in his letter, he'll be helping me with the training as well." Byron replied, "You bet I will, mate!" Laura added, "That's wonderful to know, daddy!" George smiled and winked in response. They then took a few pre-race photos before extending the tour for one more hour.
