I would like to thank everybody that has offered to help and all those that have past on their support and advise with this matter.
Unfortunately the organisers have just informed me that they no longer wish to take part. I don't know but it may be an insurance issue. It would seem that you can't do anything these days without the dreaded 'god safety' getting involved. Everyone is scared of their own shadow just in case someone is going to sue.
Oh well thanks again. I think I will go the Red-Bull Air Race instead.
Disappointed
