Rookie Rallye returns to Targa Tasmania in 2018 bigger than ever

05-May-2017 Brittany Smith

As a major part of our long term vision for Targa Tasmania, 2018 will see the re-introduction of a Rookie Rallye.  This time though, it will be contested over the FULL COURSE DISTANCE, yes, all six days will need to be conquered to win the Rookie Rallye.

To ensure that new competitors are highly motivated to take the very large step up into the world of Targa Tasmania, an entry fee that is 50% discounted, will be offered.  This will greatly assist those wanting to compete on the toughest stage and climb the highest mountain.

Three competitions will be offered, Classic GT (Combined Classic/Classic GT), Early Modern and GT (Combined GT2/GT4) with the overall winning team receiving a FREE entry to the 2019 Targa Tasmania along with the cherished winning Salvers, Targa Tasmania is famous for.

Exact criteria for entry will be released in the days ahead and entries will open on 8th May with Early Bird Discounts closing on 31st July.

We look forward to seeing you all at a Targa Australia event in 2019.
