Great write-up Cereal.
It's shocked me how much effort is needed to get a car ready for sprinting - is there a class where people can bring their road-cars along without having to do all this to them ? When I raced Lambrettas (20 years ago), all you had to do was wire-up the oil drain plugs, narrow the steering lock and away you went ! It was then up to you what tuning you did within the various classes.
Also, it seems frightfully expensive - excluding the cost of the car, how much do you think you've spent so far, and how much is absolutely necessary ?

In class 1 of the Morgan Speed Championship (Sprinting series for Morgans) you can run a completely standard (off the forecourt) car with none of the changes I've made. However you can make all the changes I am and still run in class 1.
Most of the kit is for personal safety or vehicle longevity. Performance wise the car is completely standard Ford CVH.
In the Morgan Speed Regulations is does suggest that although Class 1 is for standard cars the safety aspects such as a Roll-over-bar and fire retardant suit are advisable……
