Ouch !!!!.....

Skyline GTRs are capable of winning targa Tasmania, but the Porsche teams have top drivers, financial backing and a wicked automotive package.

I hope to see a GTR or any Japanese Performance car win the Targa Tasmania some day

[GTR]

no way...FFS! :-(

Great to hear they were giving Jim a good run

it was said on the news that it was written off but i read in the paper that it was only minimal damage and the GTR will be ready for Targa TAS this year unless i wasn't listening properly to the news but i am pretty sure that's what was said.

[gtrken]

That's good.

I spoke to Jason and John at Targa 2001 and they are hell nice guys.

I think they are definitely one of the better crews who can take the fight up to the Porsches and would be very sorry if they missed Targa 2003

Cheers

Not written off!!!!

front end damage, pushed wheel back and up into inner guard. Was running again a couple of weeks after from all reports. They also had a near miss on the run into Savage, only just got the car back on the road. Savage quite a long stage and the car "ran out of tyres"

Cant be that bad if they are going to run in Targa can it?????

Datsun versus Volkswagon should be a good show

that was on sports tonite about 2 weeks ago
