I appreciate your kind words benny, and will reply to your emails asap, been flat chat last few days!
But i do agree, ive done plenty of 1/2 day events and they are really just "fun" the first two days are usually only a build up and figure out what pace you are going to set for the event, and the fact that so many ppl a tthese events turn up with 5 sets of softs so they can blaze it up for a few short stints.
Targa is physically and mentally demanding. the lead up preparation, the final calls, recce and into the event. i think it takes a good relationship to see it through seriously. What other sport/event do you spend 6+ days in close confines with one other person? I know there is a long list of people I would NOT want to have in that situation! but Benny is one of the few i can work through the event with even in those moments of pressure!
