SOUTH: A3 Hindhead Tunnel Run

[Matt]

Niall I'm up for a piss up

[Dum-Dum]

Can we make it meet at 10pm. If the tunnel is that bad for Police then 10pm is likely to be their shift changeover time so theyll all be back at the police station

[Dum-Dum]

Right shall we meet in the Total petrol station on the OLD A3 Its about a quarter mile north of the double roundbaouts that are the last turn off before the tunnel. Meet there at 10pm?

Google link http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=51.1112 ... src=6&z=16

Google is hard to understand as it dosent have the tunnel marked on it yet.

So the total petrol statoin on the OLD A3 just south of hindhead at 10pm on 13th January 2012 at 10pm

Ill update the first post unless anyone says otherwise.



Also I have secured an XSi cabby and she should have some noisy bits bolted on before the 13th

[Niall]

Dum are you coming round the 25 and down the a3? If so, wanna meet at the bp on the a3?

[Dum-Dum]

Which BP, the first one after the M25???

[Niall]

Yeah first one south of the m25/a3 junction. There are two opposite each other.

[Dum-Dum]

[Niall]

As long as I'm not behind you, I don't care! Lol

[4WayDiablo]

Pahah :-) youll always be behind me :-)

Just so evrryone knows there is a 70 mph speed limit through the tunnel and there is average speed cameras a few hundred yard outside of each end aparebtly theyre off if the light isnt on but i guess its up to you to make your own descision

[Niall]

Not planning on going over 70 anyway. Just going for the noise lol

[Dum-Dum]

Niall that petrol station is about 20 miles / 25mins away according to Google so Ill meet you there at 2120hrs with a view to leaving at about half past to get to Hindhead for 2200hrs

Oh and Today I picked up a GTi6 inlet manifold and throttle body tee hee, I shall has bwap!!

[4WayDiablo]

You got your cab yet then? :-)

[Curt]

Now all you need is a car that bwarps Phil, then you can join in with the cool kids

[Dum-Dum]

Its 70% paid for and sitting at the dealers till I collect it on the 3rd of January so I get a full 6 months tax rather than 5 months and a week.

Will get pics as soon as she arrives.

[4WayDiablo]

Like i say it can make a loud noise and for a diesel it isnt baad lol ill be motivating people to make noise as they will all want to get in front of me

Sounds good chrisss!!

Sounds good mate. I will have my gti exhaust mani and full stainless longlife on by then

Grants got a spare gti exhaust mani I'm sure you could get off him if you wanted to?

[Dum-Dum]

I wont have a cat for it though and dont have money for one either. Could be an excuse for a de-cat but the estate needs to go before I can spend some real money

Well I'm not going to name a price because thatsmfor him but seeing as he didn't pay much for it, you might get it cheap. And a second hand gti cat might be a good idea as a temporary thing.

[raymond76]

new to the forum cant make the tunnel run but are you going to portsdown hill after?

[Niall]

I'm not sure to be honest mate. It was mentioned but no one really made a decision. Keep an eye on here!

Btw welcome to the forum.

[Dum-Dum]

TBH considering how often GTi cats seem to snap, how much they are new and how much they are wrth scrap I dont think ill get one for much less than the cost of a lovely stainless de-cat

Probably but I wouldnt like to make any comment on how many of us will actually make it that far and what time.

Well longlife are charging me 150 for a stainless cat. And longlife stuff is life time warranty so seems like a good bet!

[Dum-Dum]

I dont understand how but on ebay a new GTi cat is about £70 posted but a de-cat pipe is £110 posted.

How the f*ck does that work?
