    Thanks Trent, much appreciated.

    Stephy, we'll be going for a drive on Wednesday the 21st as I have to calibrate the Monit rally computer so you might see us out and about before Longford.

    The car is officially complete and ready for Targa Tasmania!!

    A HUGE thank you to Mick, Richard, David, Rob, Ian, Dean, and Chris for all your hard work and help to get the car ready in time.

    All our sponsors, Ambulance Private, Rennenhaus, Kumho Tyres, Jacksons VW, FastMustard, Longford Bodyworks, UberBiz, and Volkspower.

    Finally to everyone else who has supported us, sent us their best wishes, or gave us a shoulder to lean on when it looked like the car might not make it, to you guys, without all of you, this wouldn't be possible, so from Marti and I.

    Video is up on the Youtube page and the Facebook page has a heap of photos.

    We lost the clutch slave cylinder yesterday near the end of The Sideling stage. They have airfreighted a part over from Melbourne and the car is down at Jackson VW up on the hoist getting the new one installed and we will be rejoining tomorrow for the run down the west coast on Saturday and then on to Hobart on Sunday.

    Thanks mate,

    Well we finished and while our overall result sucked after missing a day with the clutch slave cylinder issue we did end up coming in second place in the teams competition behind the dream team of Tony Quinn, Jamie Vandenburg and Barrie Smith so we are more than chuffed with that result.

    Some images from the official photographer.







    99 Bends at Queenstown


    Finished without a scratch



    More images in the gallery on the Facebook page and I will try and get the videos edited an up ASAP after arriving back in Qld.

    Well, we just had the one hour footage of last weeks Targa on TV and sorry guys, no R32's were featured.
    The show was great though and they covered more of the less moderns for a change.
    Gotta give respect (heaps) to Paul Batten in the very old Volvo, seeing him pass WRX's in the pouring rain shows just how talented some of the fellas are.
