No tunnel run for me, got as far as the petrol station down the road and the power steering fluid decided it would spill all over the ground weeping

Got it home, the return pipe from the rack has split.

Can't believe it, I'd driven it to work all week so any problems could be sorted before the run.

Trying is the first step to failure frown

Hope everyone has a good time

Rich.

I had no idea of this event but I had to pop into the office this morning in the City and drove along the Victoria embankment seeing many of you drive passed in the other direction; thank you for making working on a Sunday worthwhile! And the powers of google for finding why on earth I had seen so many TVRs in London!

A Great day out apart from the 1hr 45mins it took me to get the 16 miles back home from the Ace Cafe and no it wasn't anything to do with TVR's, i only saw one on my way home...............Just cr*ppy London traffic.

TiTT virginity well and truly lost. Was awake at 3am, got up at 4am and Jane and I left her place at 5.30. I abandoned my TomTom and used "JaneJane" who was a hell of a better navigator! Missed the 0630 rendezvous due to being late and roadworks/satnav Fail. Tagged onto a TVR to get to that roundabout tunnel at the start, got bloody camera flashed though - hope there was no film in it. Missed a lot of the tunnels out as we stuck to following other Tivs rather than going off on our own. FINALLY met Graham "V8S" but where the hell did you go dude! You never came to see the Satanic hairdryer :P I will be scouring the video footage for my 2 semi-noisy tunnel passes in L666 RGS.

Thank you to the friendly chappies who came to say hello, impressed by the guy who came all the way from Guernsey :O Sorry but I'm awful with names and I've forgotten everyones normal and forum names already frown Torrential monsoon most of the way home, Traffic Jam Fails all around, and now I'm back and going to have a hot bath and bed, have been awake for over 14 hours now and I'm a zombie......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm not a TVR owner! I just googled TVR Tunnels because it was clear it involved that and found this thread! Hope you all had fun!

That would be me then it's amazing what I would do to get of the rock for a hoon, unfortunately I had to leave the car in the UK as todays ferry was cancelled and I had to be in Guernsey for ameeting so had to hastily book flights etc good news is I fly to Stansted on Sunday to pick her up again and blast down to weymouth

anyway glad you enjoyed your first TiTT
