Go for it Andy, obviously no-one from the ESC is willing to take it on.

Have a great time

We need to contact the likes of Mc D. Police and that lot on the toll gates. Are we going to try and raise money for a charity again? If so we need sealed buckets and people to be waiting at the service area to colect the money as cars arrive.

Is there anything else.

I really hope there is a ESC run htis year!, however the Miss Banzai run is on the 16th October in case it isn't (or if you want to do two )

Details below:

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.
There will be a £1 per person cash charge entry fee on the gate to cover the arena hire costs.

-Payments for maps can only be taken up to 13:00 on 16th October on the Just Giving site. PLEASE DO NOT REGISTER AFTER THIS TIME or you will not be included on the list of maps for us to allocate on the night! If you do not pay you are not guaranteed a map.

-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!


Sky Insurance will be awarding a prize on the night for the best turned out car of the evening. The prizes could be awarded to any Jap cars from Civics to Skylines... so get polishing!!! Prize to be confirmed
We will also have a few other sponsors who will be awarding prizes on the night.

Hope to see some of you there! Any questions, please drop a mail to missbanzai@googlemail.com or post your questions here! We had approx 300 cars from various different Jap car clubs along last time, and have raised over £4,524 online for various charities to date, so make sure you come along and be part of it this and help raise some cash for a very worthy cause!!

I would like this event to stay as is but its up to everyone else.

So to make this clear the only people who want to make this event work are: Me (TurboAndy), P.rite.sh and Joe. Anyone else?
We really need to get the ball rolling quick for this and get a list up.

Chris aka Milamber can you let us know what we need to do and who to contact please.

If you both are up for helping can you pm me your email address so we can keep you up to date.

I don't do the tunnel run but if I were going to do a quick last minute event I would suggest....

Keep it ESC, keep it Scooby ....and guests...keep it legal and keep it charitable !....
  • Pick a date, fix in stone do not change !
  • Pick meeting place (Lakeside Services), state arrival and departure times
  • State T&C's, cooperation with Police local tradespeople bla bla bla I dare say Chris has this
  • Setting up a Just Giving page is a nice touch and easy !
  • Get last years route and make electronically available...
  • Check route is clear for the night.
  • Optional collection at services, stickers etc

But ffs get on with it If you want it to happen make it happen ! Unless someone takes charge and offers to 'own' it rather than 'help' you will faff yourselves into a no show

Most events, especially well rehearsed events like this, just need a date, place and time, all the behind the scenes work is done or inplace to be executed from previous years...get on with it

Have fun
