HoundDog Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) so when and where is this tunnel run?? hehe dont mind me.. any excuse to get in the car and drive Well could meet in the new year for a blast on a Saturday night meeting at the whalf pub (near dartford tunnel) then We could do Dartford tunnel then A13 to blackwall out of tunnel turn off turn round back through blackwall tunnel you have rotherhithe And lime house tunnel. Off route try the round about under canary whalf then up town for a photo shoot. Only a suggestion of course : ) Edited December 10, 2013 by Dunks 1 Quote

Floydbax Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Cough cough ........... Manchester Airport ........cough (Two tunnels roundabout at both ends). Quote
ianphampton Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Tunnels are even better in a roadster - open the roof before you go in to get the full effect Quote

Spatt Posted December 10, 2013 Author Posted December 10, 2013 Erm.... tried not too, did wonder why there was no lines on the floor but was thinking "this it too good to be true Quote
Paddy78 Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 I've got the Hindhead tunnel near me, longest land tunnel in the UK 70mph speed limit in there and it's free! Can't beat a good run through a tunnel My parent's live in Midhurst and used them as a hotel when I went to Abbey earlier this year. I love that tunnel! 1 Quote
djb55 Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Good one on on the A55 at Conway North Wales. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Quote
Jixaman Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Went all the way to St Gotthards and didnt do the passes... Please tell me you did... Interlaken to Grimselpass, upper Furka, St Gotthards, Nufenen, lower Furka, Simplon (cutting off to arive in Italy down what is like a single track mountain racetrack complete with open sided tunnels on bends) ending up in Baveno (La Sorgente) or if you are mad as a hatter try ll Monterosso in Verbania for the road alone (described as 1.6 miles of gently twisting road, ha ha, yea)... Sorry, off topic, too much coffee this morning... That and the Swiss Travel Centre brochure just came in today, maybe its a sign... Quote
Scootg Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 TUUUUUUNNNNNEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLL RRRRRUUUUUUUUNNNNNN. WootZ. Quote
cs2000 Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) I use the underpass at Hyde Park or the Rotherhithe Tunnel. If there is no traffic about I hammer it through the Dartford Tunnel, Love tunnels. :thumbs: Problem with the Dartford tunnel is that its got tiled walls, so the sound is deafening Haha, I agree, however I did a London tunnel run around a year and a half ago with a bunch of jap cars. Most of the tunnels we went through all seemed to be tiled walls and I actually had to close my windows several times! far too loud! Edited December 11, 2013 by cs2000 Quote
Jixaman Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 M, Brussels just came to mind... You can drive almost all round it underground as they have a kind of ring road tunnel thing going on, entering from the north we usually go just over half way round, its mental though as quite often it pops up for like maybe 50 yards and another lane appears on the right and its a free for all both getting off and going on...

BulletMagnet Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 I hate driving on the Brussels ring road, always traffic jams there. Quote
GMballistic Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Tunnel run!!! I got one in cardiff its so short... =_= That's not a tunnel. You could throw a stone from one end to the other. The tunnel just past Newport isn't much better but it's probably the longest I can think of near us. Quote
