Dartford Tunnel is good, but Southbound Blackwall has better acoustics, northbound the bends are too tight to get decent speed up to reach peak noise level.

but but but

The Rotherhithe tunnel has the best acoustics of all, especially when you open the sunroof.

It's amazing that everyone with a big exhaust automatical hits the window switch and puts the pedal to the floor as soon as the car enters a tunnel. I do it myself lol.

I filmed my car going through the blackwall tunnel, but it never sounds as good when you play back if you did it on a phone.

I love it, it has even better effect when you have a exhaust and dump valve.
