My local British car club has an annual show (with about 200 cars).  I 
think most of the club members would be all for making the spridget the 
featured mark.  Then, the insurance, registration, sponsorship, etc. 
could be tied in to the extra spridget events.  This is sort of what the 
North American Spitfire Squadrons do for their spit-togethers.  I'm not 
saying that I think my local club should do it... I'm just suggesting 
that a local club might what to do it.
