You've never heard of Targa Newfoundland?
Targa Newfoundland is the only motorsport event of its kind to be held in North America. A 2200 kilometre rally course through stunning scenery covering a large part of the island. 'Targa' (or competitive) sections are held on roads closed to the general public and comprise 20% of the total course. The rest of the race is on public roads.
Drivers bring their cars and ther co-drivers and their support teams from far and wide.
There are classes for professional rally cars, and classes for your home grown fix-em-uppers.
And some people bring their Very Expensive Cars to take part.
This Ferrari Enzo is worth $1.5 million.... Uhoh! I don't think it's unscheduled dip in the ocean will do it much good. But I'll bet they'll be back racing in no time.
OOPS!!
