South Coast Tri Sprint Distance

I am competing in the South Coast Tri @ Seaford in September (sprint distance) for the first time, and as I regularly compete in sprint tri's, I do not have a wet suit as most races are pool based. From experience of previous years, does anybody know if just a Tri Suit would be OK for this race - or would I be at a serious disadvantage? I am a decent club swimmer but all training is based in the swimming pool. I also don't plan to do any more open swims this year......
Thanks.
Thanks.

check out the official site below - got all the info you need
The event starts with a sea swim from Seaford beach (wetsuits are compulsory for the Classic swim only). http://www.fun2tri.co.uk/Southcoast-new/index.htm
If you are a good club swimmer already a wetsuit won't make any difference over 750m, probably slow you down with taking it off in transitions etc. I will do it in a suit though as i am a crap swimmer and need the extra bouancy!
Hope this helps
