Hi all...
I'm new to this forum, and I'm sitting here on Christmas Day at my inlaws with nothing to do, so I started browsing around. Very nice..... I thought I would post up some information and pictures of our trip up to Newfoundland Canada to run in the Targa Newfoundland road rally race. Any of you know about it? It's probably one of the coolest races you'll ever do. I've done club racing, autocrosses, I'm a PCA National Instructor, but nothing compares to this. Since my wife and I run a highly modified 914/6 on the track, it was only natural that we build a 914 for Targa. 2006 was my first year as a driver (the previous 2 I had navigated for another drive in his 911's), and Nadine's first year competing at all as navigator. We had a blast. I'm hoping the Panorama will finally publish my article in Feb or March, so you can get a better feel for what it was all about. So, there we were with the first 914 ever entered into Targa Newfoundland. We nicknamed the car Huey. Can anyone guess why? it's a stretch, but I'll let a few people guess before I answer it. Here are a few pictures of us at Targa with Huey.... If you are interested in the event, the car, or anything else, please contact me. We would love to see more 914's up there...maybe a full team of us? I can be reached at naro@carolina.rr.com   |
