for the following cars I really need

* Driver's/owner's name
* Which part of the country they're from
* What mods have been made to the car, if any

I'm quite happy for it to be posted up in the thread but if anyone isn't just lob a PM over my fence with details

Details are required for "possible" inclusion in one of the magazines covering the event. They need four shots out of the ones selected so no guarrantee that you car will be used but you have a 1 in 3 ish chance.
