Cheater, I'll be lucky to be able to afford petrol to get to the shops and back after Targa rofl
But just between you and me, I'm eyeing off Rally Tas, the new Dutton series, Mt Buller & Lake Mountain, and I think I said I was going to try and organise a team for a 6 hour event this October :roll:
Oh well, what's a man got if he hasn't got dreams?

Lots and lots of nice old cars!
As a sweed I cdnt help notice the 3 Volvo´s! Not a fanatic of the brand but still...
The #222 car would be called "Volvo Amazon" in Sweden, and is prob one of the most classic ralley-cars here! Getting VERY rare...
The 122S model is the "Sport" option. (Twin carb.)

Jeff, for a cheap fun event, consider the "Legend of the Lakes" hillclimb at Mount Gambier next November. Full details at www.seacsa.com
To date, there has never been a Starion entered yet.

Dave, we're leaving Melbourne on 24th April, so if you can email me the graphics file before the end of March, that'll be one thing I can mark off my to-do list.

on a side note everyone interested in targa should really check out eric bana's new doco on his car obsession "the beast"

my father and i watched it at a preview wed night, he has done a great service to all car lovers, anyone that has a nagging spouse NEEDS to take them along too LOL

WATCH IT PEOPLE..

it might be a "documentary" more than a movie, but it's the best thing i've seen on screen for a while. I will be buying the DVD when it comes out. I dragged my girlfriend along and she loved it just as much as I did. I caught her crying part way through the movie.. at the end she said it was "touching and inspiring and genuine". she's making her sister watch it :wtf:

then again, she's great about cars though, so you might not get the same reaction from your significant other.. she's currently saving up for an E36 M3 :shock: I'm such a lucky guy :D
