TARGA Tasmania 1995 - Event Documentary

[@melbguy1]

That Beninca Alfa was a lightweight rocket. Shame that they had a throttle issue near the end. I recall Dominic commenting that Bates was worried about them before their mechanical issue. From my research, the car Dom and Joe ran in Targa was one of 25 116 GTAm cars imported from the US in RHD. The cars were originally imported to homogolate the 2 litre engine for racing in the 1977 Bathurst race, and had 248Hp in standard spec (though the Benincas probably further modded the engine). I saw that car when I visited Beninca Motors back in the mid-90's. It had heavily modified suspension, incl: coil-over front shocks and a rear wing moulded off a Sierra RS Cosworth's wing which Dominic said was producing useful downforce from 60kph.
