Without your presence, the event would have not been the same.

More importantly I would like to thank the people who have assisted on the regional element:

-M444GY for co-ordinating MSOC
-Tom87 & B4DHK for co-ordinating West Mids Impreza's
-TurboAndy & Emz for co-ordinating BABS

And the most important have to be my fellow team members, without whom, this event would have been impossible:

- Bri4n for leading!
- Wongy for the stickers & Billingsgate passes
- Karen for setting up the "behind the scene's forums"
- TurboAndy for his constant updates on club forums, leading the recce as I landed back into the UK
- Emz for contacting McDonalds & negotiating with Billingsgate Markets & the mad red bull supply.
- Lorraine for liasing with The British Heart Foundation & providing a 'ground team' locally & setting up at Thurrock on the night.
- Dave_Scooby for his efforts in designing the poster & direction booklets with the visual guides.
- Charlie, Helen, Debbie & co for going around the cars collecting money.
- 0121subs for his efforts in leading the latter half.
- Milamber for discussing how things were done before.

Everyone has worked extremely well together to make this happen, and not everyones tasks/roles were fixed, they were all very dynamic and as a team, have helped each other well - and the team have covered me well whilst I was out of the country.

I know there were a few 'issues' created on the day on this thread. Yes the event did have organisers from a range of clubs nationally as we were the ones who clearly shouted up and put the event together. Simple.

It stands that we can't please all the people, all of the time, as Bri4n very rightly said.

And trying not to repeat myself - the presence of great cars + great people made the event a success - I thank you again for your support in raising money for the chosen charity.
Brilliant event! My son and I loved meeting everyone and seeing, hearing and being part of such a great night. Well done to all those who had part in organising. BRI4N thanks for lighting up the whole of the dartford tunnel for the final run Awesome..

We were chatting with H at the Tunnel Run for a central site to upload videos for a member to create a main video, because the size of files won't be email friendly, here's a link, my website server is being used as it has unlimited space.

http://blackwidowtuning.com/TRUpload/

Thanks to Perry Feighan for his hard work in coding this page so quickly.

UPDATE:

There seem to be a possible problem with some internet providers limiting the upload image size and stopping the files, our server has unlimited upload size and bandwidth, if your having a problem, please send individually or in small banks of files, also can i ask you to put your name with them,

Thanks in advance for sorting this out, some really good stuff on the server already.

all the best,

Mark

any problems PM me.

Hi Nate,

it was originally for a master video to be created, we've been asked the same question a few times so we're going to get it all put into a gallery format this weekend with a bit of luck, thanks in advance for waiting.

Here's the vid I took of you heading off from Thurrock. Missed the first few as I was expecting Brian to stop so everyone could form up but he kept going!

UPDATE


Perry's having a bit of job with this, it was originally just for the master Video to be created, didn’t expect people asking to view, to be fair it was going to happen.

here's the link to access the server page, some files have not been zipped some have, all the videos will have to be downloaded before you view them,

I’m only doing this because understandably people are getting inpatient to see them, i will ask you not to have a moan if its not to your liking as its not in a gallery format.
