We're meeting down south at 6pm and will probably meet at Hindhead at 7pm- think the Surrey boys are aiming for that time also?

Oh yeah and not too much dicking around is tolerated- a bunch of Skyline boys were doing burnouts etc the other day and they didn't even get to the other end of the tunnel before the Police turned up. So as long as no-one is a dick we should get a few runs in 8)

I did a run through there tonight, there was Police waiting on the bridge on the junction, as you come out the Southbound tunnel & turn off to Hindhead.

Looks like the weather is gonna hold too! As long as we're semi sensible (I don't know if driving through tunnels for the sake of a bit of aural can ever be deemed 'sensible' :mad: ) I don't reckon the old bill will have too much to worry about. Skyline owners trying to recreate scenes from ''Too fast, too gay'' have only themselves to blame or maybe it was because their choice of rims is criminal?

Please excuse the carsbut this is the tunnel for those of you that have yet to see it.

Re Cameras, and the Daily Telegraph, read this last week :

"The London borough of Wandsworth has as many cameras(1,113) as Dublin city council, the police departments of Johannesburg and Boston and the City of Sydney authority combined"
