Default Targa Tas 2012

So the journey has finally begun again for Targa Tasmania 2012.

With business commitments this year causing me to change my flights 3 times and finally flying out at lunchtime today ready for the rally to start tomorrow.
Definitely the ultimate hired co driver this year! Just rock up and get in the car.

So far I have had to get special permission to miss the drivers briefing (This is my 6th Targa so the stewards were nice to me!) I need to complete documentation tomorrow (another favor from the organizers) and have a look at the pace notes and get organized by tomorrow morning for prologue in the afternoon.

Anyway I will as usual post up some pics and give everyone an insiders view of Targa 2012 once we get moving over the next week.

I am up for a gold targa plate this year and I am hoping for no or little rain so here's hoping for a trouble free event.

A certain white lambourghini did not make it to scrutineering today..... Apparently run into trouble at the sponsors day at Simmons Plains. If it was not a certain local, with the poster car, that sponsored the event you would be told to go away but I am sure that somehow he will be at prologue tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Brendon

All the best to you guys, and the Herridge team as well.

Who has a spare Lambo engine as a just in case, but as a spectical, it would be good to see the Lambo, even here in WA.

Sorry Stewart, and to all the other West Aussies, good luck to you as well, no matter what you are driving.

Best to all - may fast times be abundant and trees a blur in mirrors.
