Your letter's going to go straight in the bin mate. Especially as it's hardly a 'great advertising opportunity' to have their phone number on a car at the New Brighton Rally.

At least put some effort into it, list the events that you'll be definitely going to. Just listing one sounds lazy. You've also implied that you need money to finish other areas of the car, which is going to put them off. They could do a full spray job, but then the car doesn't go anywhere as your wheel blag's fallen through or whatever.

It's a nice idea, but I think you may as well get your arse lubbed up ready for that whale Chip was on about.
