Hi Everyone

Well we are through Day 4 of the Targa Tasmania and the Richard Kimber / Brian O’Kane Mitsubishi Evo 9 RS is running in about 40th place at the moment.

However Day 5 will prove to be a critical time for many competitors. There is already a lot of talk about how much faster the race is this year compared to the Targa 2007 and this will show in wear and tear over the critical closing stages of the race.

There is potential for the Mitsubishi Evo to gain places on the day if all goes well and the setup of all cars will be tested as people are running out of tyres and face a 2 minute penalty if they need to change to a new set.

On the Mitsubishi Evo today all we did today was flipped and rotated tyres to maximise wear and checked spark plugs and we think that our extensive preparation will put us in a better position by the end of Day 5.

Here are some pictures from Day 4 action:
