Yes, the Duggan brothers are getting closer and closer.  Last year they came 
4th, IIRC, and now 2nd!

Targa Tasmania is a 6 day, all tarmac road rally, in the tradition of the 
old Targa Florio race in Italy.  Cars compete in various classes, from 
historic to modern, and the classic class is hotly contested each year.  The 
Duggan's have competed in this race for a number of years now, in their 1969 
Datsun 2000 Solex.  Against some formidable machinery, including Mustangs, 
Escort BDA's, Porsche 911's etc. it's a real demonstration of the Datsun's 
ability.  The rules for Targa Tas. are very strict on keeping cars stock - 
even exhaust manifolds must be original design!

Anyway, find out more about it at the website:

www.targa.org.au

Cheers,

Steve
(1968 2000 Solex)
