Targa Newfoundland 2017

Targa 2014 first blog July 11th, 2014

Well it is Friday July 11th. We are now 60 days away from our annual Race on the Rock.

We  now have 3 cars entered this year. Our 2004 M3, 2013 MINI GP and recently purchased and now ready to roar 2006 MINI GP. There are three new staff additions to our team this year. Centennial College  here in Toronto, has graciously loaned us Mr. Garrett Nalepka to accompany us as our mechanic. In case we have any breakdowns or break ups (heaven forbid!). And sharing driving and co-piloting the 2006 MINI GP, will be Cody Morch (a Targa veteran) with (Greenhorn) Nicole Troster.

MINI Canada announced the MINI Challenge is back again for Targa this year. So should the 2013 MINI Win,  driver and co-pilot share a $3,000 cash award. And should the older 2006 MINI win, driver and co-pilot share a $1,500 cash award. There is bound  be a strong rivalry between these two teams me thinks.

We have had a few administrative hick-ups with one of our suppliers  this year, still to be resolved. But I am sure everything will work itself out before we fly to the edge of Canada.

To date we have pledged over $17,000 in donations for M S research. That is always a good thing.

All for now.
