Do you mean the Orwell Bridge?? Just remember who might be reading these posts!

Bit of trivia for you it's 22 years this week since the Welly Bridge opened. Some of us will remember life before the bridge!

Easy tiger! I've heard stories of Sniper's mum's Rapier in the 60's doing over 100mph on the way to Felixstowe, pre-Orwell Bridge.

Been over on an old double decker bus in the wind, , that was scary!!!!!!!

No Old Bird on the way into Felixstowe Docks after the Dock Spur R/About there are a pair of bridges and the time that everyone is talking about is the speed from the Roundabout to the second bridge. The police and everyone know that people do it BUT most people are clever enough to only think about it when it's quiet and theres no risk of going under any lorry wheels!!! There was one incident earlier this year that 2 young lads in a Corsa decided to do it and fly past the trucks then decided to cut in at the last min to take turn off for Dock Gate 2 .... consequently the car was a right off ...... I'm sure he won't try that again when its busy and he's got a car full of people.

Can get just over 120 in 106 Gti

Richycab · First Modded Motor

Doubt, i'd get to 100mph, the sheer power of my car means its so difficult to control when gunning it...

Husky · Garyboys.co.uk

I think u should knick the Austin or the mini opposite and try them

Richycab · First Modded Motor

No.... Too much power for me.... I'd be like a kid in a sweet shop!!
