Targa Tasmania

Targa Tasmania is a premier Tarmac Rally Event that now has worldwide recognition, and it is based in Tasmania, the holiday isle. Targa is also the most prestigious tarmac event in Australia, and therefore it attracts large numbers of competitors and spectators. The event features some tremendous roads running through spectacular countryside, and so enjoys extensive television and general media coverage. Targa Tasmania has affiliations with 2 other Targa events located in the region, being Targa West (in Perth, Western Australia), and also Targa NZ (in New Zealand). Packages are available to contest all 3 of these sensational tarmac events. Targa Tasmania Features some of the most exciting sealed roads that Tasmania has to offer, with some sections offering some real high speed sensations. The level of grip offered on these roads changes quite dramatically, as the surface can be predominantly dry, although it will frequently feature wet patches mid-corner, or under some of the many overhanging trees. Challenging, and exciting.

When you choose to enter Targa events with us, you will begin to experience what it feels like to be totally at one with a rally car on tarmac. As you push the limits gently, you will start to feel the car really responding to your actions, and after a couple of Special Stages, you will begin to feel as though the car is simply an extension of your own body. You will simply be instinctive in your actions, and the car will swing from bend to bend as if by magic. The amazing thrill of high speed competitive tarmac driving is all yours. You will now get to feel what it's like to actually control the uncontrollable. Our Rally Driving Courses prior to the event will assist greatly in preparing you for the challenge of going for a win in your chosen class or category.

Targa Tasmania is also part of the very exciting 2009 Repco Rally Challenge, and as such provides an interesting variation to the other gravel events in the series. If you choose to compete against other drivers in identical cars with identical skill levels, then you will be in one car throughout the year competing for outright honours in the 2009 Repco Rally Challenge. If not, the following ultimate rally cars are available for you to lease from us, on a arrive and drive Basis.

  • Lamborghini Gallardo (4wd)
  • Porsche GT3 (Rear Drive)
  • BMW M3 (Rear Drive)
  • Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution (4wd)
  • Subaru WRX Spec C (4wd)
  • Nissan Skyline GTR (4wd)

As with all our global rally leasing solutions, all of the cars come as a arrive and drive package, whereby you simply arrive at the event, turn the ignition key and begin competing. We supply everything else, except your helmet and driving suit.

Pre-event rally tuition is also available for 1,2, or 4 Days through our Rally Driving Courses packages. This would be the way to experience the most from your time with us during the event or events.
