Or £4000 per car, £500 to charity from each car and the rest goes into a prize fund, still 1/2 the cost of a gumball

Dont want to dampen your hopes, but all Motorsport events of any kind must be registered through the MSA in Britain and the FIA for international events.
Drop them an email to ask about organising something like this.
