Got sent the link to download it: www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=batch_download&batch_id=UW16bUpTOC9qV0EwTVE9PQ

Warning: LARGE files, definitely not for dial-up users! (about 90MB for both parts)

Quite amusing, but there was not a single second of pure engine sound, undiluted by thumping soundtrack music, which kind of is the whole point of a Tunnel Run... rolleyes

Plenty of footage of the Vette boys misbehaving, both behind the wheel (and on the bonnet!).

My "other" car features a few times too and shows off its roof closing trick towards the end.

Thought the quality of the video was excellent but the presenter seemed to miss the point what tunnel runs are all about. "EXHAUST and ENGINE NOISE IN TUNNELS" not thumping soundtracks.

The presenter also committed the ultimate sin "no mention of CORVETTES" yikes,however lots of video of corvettes including a certain corvette boy that was interviewed sitting on his car with "Miss BROOKE LEE " who appeared to be rubbing his leg. Bet he dont show that to the girfriend

Still an enjoyable night with plenty of great sounding cars and lots of eye candy too.

Actually the most surprising thing about the video is that the presenter (Jason?) seemed genuinely into the cars and in particular the Murcielago he had borrowed.
If he managed to avoid scuffing the wheels of that massively wide beast on some of those tight inner London roads, he even impresses me as a driver!

Er, I think that is more the fault of the director/editor surely?
But, no, he won't be taking over from Jeremy Clarkson any time soon.

Agreed with what said - didn't really focus enough on the tunnel running aspect. There was more time devoted to boobs out than flat out!

Anyway, not too bad... I didn't see any ZR1s in there, but plenty of vettes otherwise. But the Sheriff's Caddy STS at least is one out of my stable, so not too bad!

Checked out the DVD given to us at last night's launch party and there's lots of Corvette action on there - even if the name is never mentioned!

Plenty of smoke.....

And a very fine cameo performance by Vet Guru at the end!
