Time to start planning for Targa High Country or Wrest Point then easy.

Yeah Jamie,
Just heard myself. Apparently owners of local cars prepped to local rules weren't too happy about it. Bit of a shame and a bit short sighted. As Danny suggested, vote with your wallet and head east and do the real thing. ie rallies with minimal or no repeated stages, epic roads, no chicanes, no restricted speed zones and no max speed limits.

Targa west just seems to be going out of their way to make the event rubbish

What doesn't comply with CAMS rules on the car Jamie?
Is it too much work to change a few things and bluff the rest? |

E85 injectors? Wheel/tyre size?

Its injectors, E85, and the wheels. So you are up for a set of injectors, a retune, a set of R comps in a size you will never use for anything else and have to find some evo VI rims as the VIII rims he got are 8 inches wide and TME's had 7.5's. (Although have seen V's and VI's running the stock VIII rims at TW. )
Also for me it was hard to get my head around making my car slower for a competitive event. Once you get used to driving a car on any race fuel with the extra torque and power its kind of unexciting to go backwards. Just extra expense on top of all the other expenses. Was the main reason I didn't bother with it along with cost V competitive km. Ie value for money.

The entrant numbers are going backwards at a rate of knots and they are not exactly attracting solid fields like they were. If you work out the entry fee per competitive k it is outrageous compared to the events over east. I was going to run it on E85 as a shakedown but the car wont be ready so it has solved the problem.
