Cars need to comply with Targa regs? i.e. roll-cage?

To conform to a Targa class, cars must be Targa compliant.
makes it sound to me like it is open to all vehicles but Targa complaint cars get preference

*limited to a maximum of 40 vehicles.

I highly doubt there would be 40 targa compliant cars in Perth that would be interested in it.

... I wonder if Kim has influenced this, seeing he's been working in the office lately??
(Agreed Jamie/ Matt- is a strange time of month and seems to conveniently fill the 'gap' before Sprints)

Not sure Steve, I also try to avoid the heat around that time of year- not complaining that there are more options becoming available though!!

In regards to ideas, I know people have been throwing around the idea for a while, just thinking that since Kim has been in the office I've noticed a bit more action lately!
