N.Z targa rally, FD strikes again :)
1st : 2003 porche 911 GT3
2nd: 1999 porche 911 GT3
3rd: 1992 rx7
(just that giddy feeling)
4th: 2003 porche 911 gt3
(lots of porches lol)
5th Subaru WRX sti Cars are right, car years may be slightly off)
Looks like another good finish for the 7
Ohh for your information the targa was tarmac and over 900 kilometers and 10 stages. Some harsh and unpredictable roads with a lot of very sharp curves. So perfect sports car terrain hehe
It gives ya that giddy feeling when ya realize how old the design is coming up against (modern) race-bred 911's
But on a sad note, there would have been another rx7 in the top 10 (I think) had it not crashed
and the rx7 that came 3rd had some problems that may have cost it 1st place ( can't remember all the details)
Oh yea can you help me make a signature?
heres my idea...
(In the land of the honda, it is the FD that rules) or something along those lines, seeing I live in New Zealand where we only drive japanese cars and european luxury models plus fords lol
its funny how there are probably more fd rx7's than the sum total of imported mustangs, camaroes, corvettes, vipers etc of all years heheh now thats proportions for ya!!

uhh, been to the USA lately?
We have more twisty roads in Dallas than the whole north island down there. It is more a matter of the beloved roundyround racing that has hipnotized the US car race scene.
And Jon Mag,-- We do have a Tarmac rally in the North American continent..well close enough Targa New Foundland. Same thing as the new Zealkand rally. In fact it is a spin off of that excat rally
I plan on being there in 07' if things go as planned. Come join the fun. Damian may bring teh CYM if it all falls together. But that is a looong way off

ahhhhhhhhhhh ..... Why would you run 4WD in an RX7? That defies logic.

yeah , now about the 4WD comment, I cant remember where I heard it so can someone do me a favour and BURN ME!!!
p.s. I'm in CHCH so unless you guys wanna do a tarmac rally from CHCH to Auck then I'd say a track day in Taupo could cost me a little extra
