Unfortunately it doesn't look like there's much of a safe place for a pedestrian to stand. It'd be cool to get a small crew with some video and audio recording gear taping while we drove through!

We will be making a sharp right immediately after the tunnel and there is pedestrian access to the mouth of the tunnel at that point. Whoever sets up though is going to miss a chunk of the drive, but if someone wants to video the exit from the tunnel I can create a special route for them.

Is there any kind of loop we can take, so we can all get a few passes? I can bring a video camera and some audio recording equipment (better sound quality than the video camera mic) and set up and record a pass or two, so long as I don't have to miss out on the fun!!!

You'll just have to replan the run. Skip the twisties & tight corners. Skip the nice sweepers. Just do endless circles to go through the tunnel over & over & . . .

P cars only?!?!?!?! I was so planning on bringing my camero and growing a mullet just for the occasion.


And Ian, it's not my Daddy's car, it belongs to my mom.
