Worth a download just to hear pwig giggling like a schoolgirl after hearing 10 TVRs roaring through the tunnels.

Clip is 16megs so you are best off "right clicking and saving as".

Video Enjoy.

Edited to say video is now in windows media format.

You need to load realplayer. And when you do, you'll be able to see me zooming through the tunnels with everybody else .

I know this is terribly cheeky, but do you have it in any other format as I'd really love to see it? I ask because RealNetworks' RealONE player is notorious for the violations of privacy that are built into it so I refuse to run it on my machine, hence I can't watch clips in the .rm format.

For more details on some of RealNetworks' questionable practices see:

http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/03/08/008210&mode=thread

"Furthermore, a consultant, who used to work at Real Networks, replied, sharing some questionable practices Real engaged in, such as hiding a variety of "add-ons" at the bottom of the page, hoping that the user would not scroll down to un-check the selections, and then charging his credit card for add-ons when he signed up for paid version on Real One."

In addition to the stuff covered in this article if you carefully read the Terms & Conditions before you install the player you will see there is some scary stuff in there in terms of the information RealONE syphons off your PC.

Responding to the comments, I have just uploaded the video in WMV format at roughly the same quality.

I have also ammended the link in the first post so that it downloads the wmv file.

Enjoy now!

Yep.

Nice to see a Lotus honking past all of those Blackpool Bathtubs...

Cheers

Yeah, but no doubt we will organise a longer run out, perhaps in conjuction with the Yorkshire mob, when the weather gets a bit better.......




It was bloody freezing in my Tiger.........

Excellent! Only had my car a day and a half and I'm famous already!

Pity there isn't a roundabout at the start (north end) of the tunnels as well - we never would have got to the pub.

There is a roundabout at each end actually! Good job I wasn't there after all!
