It's been ages since I've been through the Tyne Tunnel. We could do with the next meet-up being somewhere close and we can do a Tyne Tunnel run, a bit like the very first NEPH meet-up.

How's about doing a video night. Get an assortment of exotica, 1 quiet car, preferably a convertible to be used for videoing panoramic views and as the video car goes southbound through the tunnel, the hoard can go northbound, hopefully passing where it's flat and straight in the middle.

We could meet up at McD's on the Silverlink.

I'm all for the run through the tunnel but I draw the line at having to go to McDonalds !


You mean to say you don't like pressed badger?

I can't see any probs with going to the pub instead, at least it should serve decent food and it'll make a change from Shaftoes and their hospitality can't be any worse

Hey Up Mark......You've started something now !!




Don't forget the reason I want to do this is to make a bit of a video Stefan. We'll need plenty of locations where the camera can catch the action, then catch up and film the next bit etc.

Now look, you're not hijacking my Tyne Tunnel idea for a run up to Alston. I want a video of our cars going through the tunnel, a bit like the TG film of the Zonda in a tunnel, in the South of France.

Unfortunately, we don't have the South of France, we only have South of Shields, so that'll have to do.

There's a bridge on the end of the South entrance of the tunnel which looks all the way down the tunnel, so we get a great shot and plenty of noise. Combine that with a passing shot inside the tunnel and we have ourselves a film worth listening to.
