I would rather see sponsorship funds going into prizes like best Class Novice/Newcomer and other such things as this helps attract new blood to the series which is essential for the continuation of DD.
Glyns Sponsorship of Class B last year was fantastic as was the idea behind Dickies prize in 2005 with Lin a well deserved winner.

I guess it's because the whole club want to go racing and is one of the massive benefits of a club run series.
