Targa Newfoundland race
Original Message   Jul 24, 2005 7:48 am
Hi Folks

A friend of mine who races won entry into the Targa race in Newfoundland for Sept. 10-17, 2005.  The Targa is a road rally type race of 2200 Km done through the city streets of Newfoundland.  This is the link that tells all about it.

He is looking for a support driver from the area to drive his (my friend's) truck and trailer carrying spare parts and I told him I would post it here as I know we have a few people from the area, if anyone would be interested. 

Thanks guys!

Paula

ummm Paula...

you havent been to Newfoundland have you.

2200 k of city streets is sounding very unusual.

im not gonna laugh at you just yet but you should have a little chat with Paridise,he lives just outside a lil town called paridise which is a little way from St.Johns i think.anyway he could tell you all about the place and maybe even suggest a co-driver- helper.

oh yea watch out for the moose,they can shorten up a race pretty quick.
