What about a few ground rules like cars have to be road legal with a current MOT and have to be DRIVEN not trailored to the event

Trailored seems a bit unfair seeing as some of us have to travel a long way and fuel consumptions not too economical...

Sticks!? Cheeky git 
You gonna get your car ready too Adam?
What sort of location are we looking at for this?
Im thinking a 1/4 mile test and then put tyres out on the runway and make a short but sweet handling course!

Then they should either sort out their finances to afford uneconomical cars and build proper cars that can actually run on the road.

The wheels on my black one are vectra super touring, and they are 5 stud, so to fit them i converted to 5 stud hubs and 288mm disks.
Its got a nitrous'd calibra turbo engine in the boot driving the rear wheels, but isnt running at the moment (i'm only just fitting the now as it was an XE in the boot when i got it) the engine is only a basic spec one at the moment though, circa 325bhp total.
Depending on when the day is though it may have more power than that if ive finshed the new engine im building.
Ive also got a fwd nova that has done a 13.3 @ 109.8 previously which is an XE on nitrous.
Both are road legal and on road tyres.

Excellent, lets hope whoever maps it knows what they are doing, be a shame to destroy such a nicely specced motor but its easily done!
