Targa Newfoundland (not advertising)

every year targa comes to newfoundland and they race all over the place,

there are some amazing cars there and ill absolutley HAVE to bring my camera
to the stadium this september and take a million pics

there is everything from old school dusenbergs
to old school volvos
to old school mustangs and vettes
to new crazy blown stangs
to srt8 chargers and 300's (done up in racing spec, no interior, carbon fiber panels and flared wheelarches etc,)
to supras to trans am's to thunderbirds and it goes on and on


but anyway, i just had a major thought about it when i saw a srt8 in zalights new thread which has some cool stuff

im gonna make a killer thread when the time comes, www.targanewfoundland.com

some of the cars and stuff^
i actually cant wait:mrgreen:

  nighthawk

SHIT, DOUBLE THREAD< COMPUTER SUCKS:banghead:

  nighthawk

I've been hearing about that/seeing commercials for the last month or so...last year's was pretty sweet, so I've got some good expectations for this year...But why are you making the thread like six months before it starts? :laughing:

  chris_knows

whore thread hahha:laughing:

  mx3_monster

If it doesn't start for another like 6 months then maybe I can go (should have my G2 by then, just drive down) lol :wink2:

September 9th to 16th...I can be the co-driver lol (If I can get in with a G1 :laughing: )

  chris_knows

I just thought about it when i was reading zalight's dyno day thread,
I saw a charger srt8 and it reminded me of the 2 that are in targa,
and i was really bored

  nighthawk

Oh then damn, I should have my G2 like 2nd week of August (and my birthday is September 14th, maybe go then..or whenever the weekend is lol)... and sure, if you wannt be co-driver I can make a detour :wink2:

  car_crazy89

Sweet...now we just need:
Won't be easy to convince them that we have all of this stuff :laughing:

  chris_knows

Damn, and here I thought we could really do it.... and win :wink2: . We could try our best, you're a smooth talker aren't you?...... or we may just have to settle with going and watching lol.

  car_crazy89

Well, I did know that the SRT-4 doesn't have an exhaust, but I don't know if that's going to cut it :laughing:...Of course I could always post-whore them to death :laughing:...Yeah, we probably should watch lol...

  chris_knows

Haha, well I'm alright with watching, can always try for next year :laughing:

  car_crazy89

I think you should watch it too, :laughing:

i dunno how easy winning would be though
theres some crazy competetion:drool:

  nighthawk

I'm already trying to convince my dad to go there lol...get to miss school and watch cars racing :smoke:...Now just to get him winded up :laughing:

  chris_knows

ohh its awesome, we get the day off school and everything,

ps, you'd actually come all the way here to see it?

  nighthawk

I'm trying lol...Most likely won't happen, but next year I'm probably going to Quebec for F1 over the summer :hi: lol

  chris_knows

lol nice, but if i were to ever to to f1 id spend almost all my time around the lots and garages looking at the cars up close, as I do at targa:laughing:

monster trucks are coming here in afew weeks too, i just remembered that
wow cool stuff is coming here so fast:smoke: :hi:

  nighthawk

I'd honestly try and go if I have my G2 by then (I should). I already want to roadtrip to the US so why not go down (up?) there too. How much does this event cost? lol. Actually I even have an uncle near there, so I could visit him for once in like... 15 years :wink2:

  car_crazy89

If you go by April 1st, it's only $3995 + tax :laughing:

  chris_knows

  mx3_monster

  Scolson

wow that a lot:2cents: but it would be a lot of fun to participate in

  mx3_monster

Well that was today

It was good,

Ive got about a hundred pics taken. but im too lazy to put all of them in photobucket

I just copied over a few good videos I took, Gives you a good sense of how loud some of the cars were, and how different they all were from each other
