    Targa Tasmania Series on YouTube Porsche Channel

    Porsche has produced a daily video series for the stages of the Targa Tasmania. It looks like those guys are almost as quick as the Targa CA.

    Those are some great videos! I had to watch all of them. I think we can do a Targa Pocono in the same fashion Maybe Walter Rohrl will stop by.

    Seriously wish I was there....thought about it but could not get the funds together ..... Not a cheap exercise to do at around $20K all up by the time you factor in entry fees, accommodation, ferrying the car across to Tasmania, food, blah bah

    When co-drivers go bad ... these 2 were very lucky to walk away from this.

    Yeah, I don't why the driver said he was sorry. I would have flown that corner too! She said "crest, then 300, then left 4 1/2" .. amongst other confusng calls.
