His vehicle was featured on the cover of the magazine National Dragster. In October 2015, Brandon Beach was announced to be participating in the National Hot Rod Association's Toyota Nationals in Las Vegas, Nevada, for which Beal has constructed a car for him to compete. He spent about 15 years as a crew member for Chuck Beal Racing before he was entered into a competition. Chuck Beal and his Funny Car have received positive reception from editors in drag racing magazines. His vehicle was called "one of the most recognizable of the time" for Funny Car racing by National Dragster magazine in 1984, and an editor for the National Hot Rod Association's website recounted meeting Beal and remembering it fondly decades afterward. At the 2015 NHRA Toyota Nationals at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Brandon Welch made a full pass of 4.30 seconds in the 3rd qualifying session. (en)
