We scored all zero times on Leg 2 today. Co-Driver Rob navigated excellently. Vying for 1st place against BMWs, Fiats, Porsches, and a Scion. All about precision...

Outstanding!

Targa Newfoundland and the Targa Tasmania are on my bucket list. When you have a chance, please post some info about your prep and setup.

Good luck!!!

Well... it took a lot of prep. I picked up a 2013 LX 570 and a car trailer, drover 4300 km with some buds, and we are in this race. For prep, put on a high-performance air-intake (K&N) which gave me an extra 8 hp, but makes it sound amazing. Did a few driving schools, one useless one in Vegas (tourist trap), and a great one pre-Targa. The pre-Targa school was about $1200 for the two of us, but is essential if you want to do something like this.
Check out the pic of the rig on the LX forum.
