Ah, now then, you see youve not quite done that right

The best way is to approach it at a very slow speed allowing all the traffic behind you to get out of range...this also allows the 20 or so TVR's behind you to bunch up nicely.

Next, just as you go into the tunnel..floor it, make sure you look in your mirror to ensure your friends are doing the same - the sound is amazing.

As you reach the end of the tunnel feather the gas to allow the car to pop & bank like mad thing, get to the roundabout on the north side of the tunnel & go right round it entering the tunnel again.

Do the same, but this time the traffic coming towards you is your mates also in TVR's, much waving & flashing of light follows.

Makes for great banter in the pub on the way home

of course, all of the above is purely speculative & should always be done within the speed limit

We've probably all had that comment from the wife/other half.
She also tends to tell me how sad I am.

It's amazing what fun you can have at 30mph - however brief.

Hi Keith
