4. Targa Newfoundland Rally
5 days of competition across the Canadian island province of Newfoundland draws
competitors as far away as Australia.
Tony Kloosterman and sin team up under the banner of I Never Quit Racing + running
a WRX.
Tony told us the car was incredibly stable with HotBits DT2 suspension compared to
the previous suspension.
Targa is a tarmac event but the rural roads have lots of the broken surface and potholes
that the Hot Bits just swallowed up.
HotBits would like to congratulate all the winners and the huge group of our customers
that just love to have fun in great handling cars.
2007 looks to be even more promising with some new teams at drag racing and drift
running.
