The Surrey/Berks/Hants Driving Club
- Thread starter flimper
- Start date
Thanks for those who have confirmed phone platforms / WhatsApp use etc.
I have never done this before but in excitement of making the club a success I have already planned my turn of "Hosting a Hoon."
Screenshot of the route map attached. Just under 74 miles / 2:19 mins of driving without traffic. In case anyone gets lost directions will be shared with smartphone users via Google Maps ahead of the event and printed out for those who do not have a smartphone or want to use their Sat Nav's instead.
I suggest meeting at Knaphill Sainsbury's to begin with.. time & date to be confirmed for maximum turn out from the club. The route itself offers a variety of roads with a couple of stops along the way.
http://goo.gl/GmYqCu = 1st stop for those who wish to take photos before the cars get too dirty
http://goo.gl/IC2fjI = Halfway (ish) stop, comfort break, another photo opportunity & to compose ourselves after the tunnel run :lol:
Potential comms (if needed) during the drive for smartphone users: http://www.voxer.com
I know I know...way too much time on my hands!

Cheers Chaps.. Anyone fancy taking advantage of the dry weather and a trial run either tomorrow lunch time around 1 or on Sunday morning (start time negotiable
)..??Attachments
I can do Sunday, the earlier the better. Looks a great route - between Loxwood and Plaistow it goes within 500 yards of my house.
This is dependent on it being dry. My driver's side windscreen wiper has popped out of its socket. I've got the clips for the repair job, but probably won't get time tomorrow to do it as we're off to the Cotswolds for the day.
I will PM Flimper and Wrs my mobile number for any text messages.
Here's hoping we get out on Sunday!

Not any tunnel "At 1,830 metres (1.14 miles; 6,000 feet) in length, the tunnel is the longest non-estuarial road tunnel in the United Kingdom"
