Targa Newfoundland Stories and Photographs

In these pages you will find stories and photographs on the first-ever Targa Newfoundland car rally. Some of these appeared in The Toronto Star Wheels section, prior to and following the event; others appeared on The Star's web site during the event. Since each story was intended to "stand alone", there is some repetition - please forgive!

To all competitors, officials, attendees, volunteers, etc.: if you see any detail herein which you feel is not correct, or if you have any questions or queries at all, please e-mail me at:
