Apex 693 Report post Posted January 12, 2011 Will be my first motorsport event and I look forward to seeing a few of you, I know there were a shed load of BMW’s at the last Targa, maybe not members on here? Any tips or advice for a novice… other than don’t/do crash Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sammy J 1 Report post Posted January 12, 2011 I will be doing it with my old man in his bright yellow gtr, come over and say hey. best tip is just work your way into it, seen a few people get over excited on the first few stages and end up having a prang. Also plan what spares your car might need. But good luck and enjoy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted January 12, 2011 Good one. On Targa tour, one thing I found hard on the longer stages was keeping my attention level up, I tell you after 20km and even at full noise up to 1**kph (what goes on tour) my mind started to wander… and some stages are over 50km at full attack… was a good prequel as we were doing some stages faster than main competitors in a stock road car. I will be doing it with my old man in his bright yellow gtr, come over and say hey. best tip is just work your way into it, seen a few people get over excited on the first few stages and end up having a prang. Also plan what spares your car might need. But good luck and enjoy! I will, was the GTR in the full event last year?? Spares you say. Yea I don’t even have a full sized spare wheel and can’t get one for my car in time, how’s that for prepared. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
