We need the full res tunnel version clip

Wyn's working on it. I wanna try out my new mac's video editing software, DVD's on their way in a week or two.

Thanks Mike.

A superb report and Video !

Great write up Mike, what was the "incident" on the return trip through the tunnel, nothing serious for any of the boys I hope?

Excellent report Mike.

Your car is looking mighty fine..!

One day soon i will be able to take my son out in the wedge...he's only 5 at the moment, and runs a mile when i start it up...

Also good to hear the Skyline owner aspiring to TVR Wedge ownership.

It sounded good too apparently!

Some old duffer in the tunnel decided to cross the two lanes half way through the tunnel, right in-front of us even though you are not allowed to do this as there were two bloody great thick white lines painted between the lanes.

He was totally oblivious to what he was doing. I think Wyn let him know though! ;-)

The video is courtesy of Wyn and his passenger though. I gotta get me some sort of video gear - too many opportunities missed already.

Mike I've sent you a higher res vid

[mikeb]

The higher res vid now online!

Much better, is it me or does the 450 sound awsome as it picks up speed going around camp corner.

It's funny I ain't heard the 450 from the 'outside' yet so you don't get the full effect sitting in the cabin. I will have to get the missus to drive up and down the road a few times whilst I sit at the side of the road (sad really).

[mikeb]

Dicky are you agreeing that it sounds awsome or that I am sad?

Not meaning to detract from the other cars but your Wedge was the only one making the right noises. No wonder some of us are not allowed without silencers


PS, tunnel section TBA?

[mikeb]

Oh yeah!

In fact I reckon that we should get together one sunny Sunday and go film and record a series of runs and then edit them together and burn some DVDs for interested parties. Titles, music the works. Roadside, in-car footage etc.
