scrimja Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I'm potentially up for it. Will have to see closer to the time. Will need a driver though as I'll want to be on the other side of a camera, not in the 318 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C63er Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Guys, This sounds amazing!! I live round the corner from the rotherhithe tunnel and think mits route definitely sounds fit for purpose! I think somewhere in that route should include driving thru Piccadilly unleashing some power down the mall past the ritz and thru the tunnel towards knightsbridge, down sloane street toward sloane square then to embankment which will eventually take us thru limehouse link. Just after lime house link there is the canary wharf roundabout which is indoors so anyone who feels the need to get their drift on, feel free!! Kal My route does include that lol The underground roundabout is on YouTube there is a zonda and other tvr's zooming around sounding good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E46charles Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I've done tonnes of rolling shots if you have your camera with you on the night i'll help set it up for a perfect rolling shot. Here's one i made earlier..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Looks good Although, I wish it had less space at the front and more space at the rear. Nice shot though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E46charles Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Looks good Although, I wish it had less space at the front and more space at the rear. Nice shot though! That's just down to the crop the car in the original image is centred. Though for a car shot like this you should have more space in the direction of movement to give a feel of direction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Though for a car shot like this you should have more space in the direction of movement to give a feel of direction 100%, but, it just looks to closely cropped to the rear. Like I said though, still a great shot. Much better than any rolling shot I've taken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than any rolling shot I've taken Wait till we get on the tunnel run inside a tunnel rolling shot would be sweet with the tunnel lights hitting the paint!

mit Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) Oh I completely forgot about the remap! http://mital.me/zFlJVt New start/finish point at Crescent, EC3. As long as there are no other cars parked there (unlikely there will be many) there are some decent photo opportunities before heading off. The route takes in the tunnel on Thames Street, Kingsway, one of the best views of London across Waterloo Bridge, a lesser known (and quieter/better) service tunnel back towards the east, Limehouse Link, the roundabout everyone's on about, Blackwall Tunnel, Rotherhithe Tunnel and finally back to Crescent again to finish. There are a few places to stop for dinner along the way if people decide that's what they want to do, alternatively we could get something before departing from the local pizza express or something...

C17RSF Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Spoke to a mate of mine that does these quite regular with the supercars and he reckons best way to go is from the east to west and becareful of blackwall tunnel as it maybe shut. He also said be prepared you might hit some traffic and watch the speed cameras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
