Default Targa? Who's done it?

Anyone have experience competing in a Targa Rally? Is it as wicked as it looks? Expensive?

Default RE: Targa? Who's done it?

hey rook,
just jumped over from the classic forum.

I am in Australia where tarmac is probably the fastest growing area of motorsport at the moment.
I have an event starting 11/3/06 Mt Buller Sprint and my favorite event, the CLassic Adelaide rally on about the 15th of november.

in answer to your questions...

yep...rates right up there with good sex
yep...can be a wallet buster like any other form of motorsport!! Our car owes us around $70,000 not including event entry fees and consumables. Straight up currency conversion would be around $50k US but looking at relative parts prices over there it seems about the same $ for $.

coupla pics attached.

cheers
