DaveR Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 We still going for 2015hrs at Thurrock Services? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 We usually meet at the services before going in to the Arena. We then meet at the services again on the way out as there is zero chance of everybody getting out at the same time. I think 8.15pm at the services, heading in at around 8.45pm and then meeting at the services on the way out. Just a reminder for the instructions tonight, below is the post code, remember we meet back there after we leave the Essex area so then we can re-group. Then we head into London together, should be a great night, see all you folks later RM16 3BG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 Just finished cleaning the car, leaving in about an hour and a half to get to the services around 8.15 or perhaps 8.30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Not coming now! Gearbox is in and it's running, driving and stopping. Sadly I didn't get it done in time to sneak in an MOT. I shall attend the march one me thinks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Chaps, we are leaving the area soon & will be heading back to the services so meet there once you are out. Then we will head down together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveR Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) Just got back home - licked, but had a great time! London's never sounded so sonorous! It was nice to meet the other members out there and put some faces to names. Big thanks to Abz for the use if his "special umbrella" ( ) and Branners, very well done for having such an encyclopaedic knowledge of London's backroads! Definitely up for the next one of these, hopefully without the rain... Edited October 21, 2012 by DaveR (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Was lovely meeting you Charlie & George!! Was good to see Branners & a few old faces! Even though it rained for most part of the night it still was a great night. Branners did his thing & took us on a great tour, actually loved the second part where we when through the tunnel where the night club was and when Supra aero's mate floored it through everyone was dunking like gun shots were going off! Had a great night peeps, think we should do a club night one! Some fantastic tunnels & amazing bridges across London, stop also at land marks like St Paul's, London Eye, Big Ben & Canary Wharf.

My ears hurt from my new exhaust which I may have to to sell. As its too loud for me! Yeah my ears are bleeding somewhat after the more visceral unrefined experience of my shiny new single turbo... Awesome though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 It was certainly a fun evening, hard work compared to previous Tunnel Runs with so many roads closed off. I normally spend a good 10 minutes in the area with the nightclub tunnel but there was no easy way back in to it. Glad you all enjoyed the tour, not sure the Blackwall tunnel and the A2 added to the experience but happy to try it again next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Stop rubbing it in! I got sideways quite a few times last night, was quite easy with the damp roads!! My brother in law loved when we crossed the bridges. Central London can be magical at night with everything lit up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
