ok please post this on all forums you have posted to about the tunnel run...
Its groups like this that often have us asking ourselves why we bother to organise tunnel runs…
https://www.facebook.com/events/310247722367020/
People that don’t want to put their hands in their pockets and donate a small amount to charity, whilst having fun.
Comments like…
Ben Bumpin Buckley why arnt you going into essex arena?
Kim Ling whats that mean?
Ben Bumpin Buckley everyone is leaving from the arena so wondered why people meeting in the services?
Chien Ling last year it took over an hour and a half to get out of the arena... 400+ cars through one gate... meeting at services seems the logical alternative...
Ben Bumpin Buckley yes you do have a very good valid point there
took us ages to get outAnd…
Ben Bumpin Buckley Haha wicked stuff. What time you arriving ?
Chien Ling About 11pm...
Ben Bumpin Buckley Arena leaving at 1045 ain't they?
Chien Ling Not all 400+ cars will be able to leave at the same time so they will probs start leaving for the A13 between half 10 to midnight... if we leave for the route at half 11, there will be plenty of action...
)Every year we have the same people tagging along and not donating.
We know that they are public roads and everyone is intitalled to drive on them,
But we have had people in the past that are just out to cause trouble for everyone else, driving dangerously etc.. its people like these that give good people who want to do something for fun and raise money in the process a bad name.
This year as well as chalking numbers on the cars we will also be putting a unique symbol on each window. If you see a car on the route without these markings, please take down the details and name and shame.
It takes a lot of time, effort and money to arrange these events, and we hope that all the people that donate and enjoy the event think it is worth while.
So please help us keep these events worth doing, and stop people like this spoiling our fun.

there is an entry fee on the gate,£2 as it states in the first post, but all of that money covers the cost of the arena and insurance etc.

4 days to go, please make sure you make your donation on the just giving site if you wish to take part.
By the way, from previous experience (not to say its you guys, I'm posting this on all the forums I'm posting on) we always get a few that turn up but make no donation and just tag along, as this is a charity event (and cheaper than a lot of static events) we feel this is quite unfair to see people take advantage this way. This is why, if we see anyone who is just tagging along this time, we will take down numberplates and name and shame them. We feel this would be particularly effective this time due to the amount of coverage we are getting now. So please guys and girls, make the donation and don't be a douche and just tag along!
Thanks!

I said id put this on here for my mate as he needs it shifted so hopefully there will be some interest, a few nice bits on it.
-
nice one chap, hopefully some more of you guys will be up for this as its for such a good cause, make sure you donate people only way to secure your map for the night.

Back for the second time in 2010, we present another London Tunnel Run, hosted by MissBanzai.com inviting all Japanese car owners!
*** Note this is for Japanese cars only -no exceptions.. non Jap cars will be refused entry ***
The run will kick off at Essex Arena (RM19 1AE) on Saturday 16th October from 9.30pm. Maps will be handed out on arrival to those who have pre-paid through the Just Giving site. There will be no entry to the site after 10.30pm.
Please register your attendance by visting http://www.justgiving.com/TunnelRunMissBanzai and donating your £5.00 entry fee. (Please put user name & club in the comments). Donations made via the Just Giving site will go direct to the nominated charity, The London Air Ambulance. This is MissBanzai's 5th tunnel run and we decided that having used and abused London's roads on so many occasions with no incidents we would pick this charity, as many drivers in London and the M25 area are not as lucky as we have been and The Air Ambulance is normally called for road traffic accidents. So we felt this would be a very worthwhile charity to raise money for on this occasion.
In comments please put your club name & forum user name - nothing else! (this list will be used to hand out the route maps of the run on the night -there *may* be a limited number of maps on the night BUT this is NOT guaranteed).
-Please arrive at the arena no earlier than 9.30pm. PLEASE NOTE you should use the go kart track entrance to the arena.

-Entry is £5 for a map (prepay on Just Giving) and £1 per person in cash on the gate to the arena on the night to cover the arena costs.
-This event is for Japanese cars only.. nothing else! There will be marshalls on the gate.
-Please remember to drive responsibly -anyone not doing so will be asked to leave the site.
-You will need to bring sat nav / London A-Z for when you get lost. A passenger / map reader is also essential!

Right guys and gals i am proud to announce that this months jap meet will be done conjunction with Miss Banzai jap club and skyinsurance, and will also incorpoate a tunnel run
.Sky insurance are donating a bottle of bubbly and box of choccies for car of the night and runner up so get polishing guys, also i thought it would be a good thing to mention this is for charity so bring your wallets and dig out any spare change you have lying down the back of the sofa as there will be some collection buckets.
the details are as follows:
The moment you have all been waiting for.. the event of 2009! (Well so far anyway)
Yep you have guessed it.. another infamous MissBanzai Tunnel Run!
Date: Saturday 28th Feb
Time: 8:30pm expected to leave no later than 10pm
Meeting point: Thurrock Services
J30/31 M25
Arterial Road
West Thurrock
Grays
RM16 3BG
There will be maps and details of the route but to qualify for one of these there is a minimum donation of £4 with all of the money going to charity.
The Charity details:
The Myositis Support Group is a UK charity providing advice and support to sufferers of Dermatomyositis, Polymyositis, Inclusion Body Myositis and Juvenile Dermatomyositis and their families. The MSG also funds and promotes medical research that improves diagnosis, treatment, management and understanding of these diseases.
Charity Registration No 327791
Please take the time to go to...
http://www.justgiving.com/missbanzaitunnelrun
and register your donation which will qualify your car to enter the Tunnel Run and give you a map for the route..
Quick notes...
If you have never done a tunnel run before the following is a good thing.
Remember you will be following typed instructions, with possibly a few sat twat locations and a few pics of maps.
We cannot supply map books to everyone, so a map book of London of your own would be a really useful thing to have in the car.
Also a co-pilot is rather vital.. you will be driving round London on a Saturday night so someone to read you directions and point out road names helps loads!
Walkie Talkies.. these are not only really handy, but really good fun as well.
SimonAirHeadz is the man to speak to with regards to what type you need.
If you have never done a Tunnel Run before, the aim of the night is to drive round London taking in as many tunnels as possible, and making as much noise as possible whilst going through them
We must note that the Tunnel Run is NOT a race, MissBanzai tbdevelopments and skyinsurance do not condone any unsafe or dangerous driving.
Please cut and paste this on any other forums that you may be a member of as all clubs are welcome.
And don't forget.. it is in Feb, the weather could be very cold so bring the thermal undies.
i look forward to seeing you all there guys so as usual lets get a list together of who is up for it.
