Hmmm…the Targa was heavily recce’d, and the only rally out there that is seat-of-your-pants-read-the-pace-notes-for-the-first-time is SCCA (the rally drivers with REAL cojones).
A quote from Vic Elford about the Targa, ““By 1968, the track was etched into my memory; you could literally have blindfolded me and dropped me somewhere along the route by helicopter, and I could have told you where we were, what the next corner was, and which gear I’d be in.”
So…in the spirit of the real Targa, any recce would be acceptable. However, opening up the rally track is a multi-person activity…so having scheduled sessions is certainly helpful…but as manager, I can’t say I have any objection to running practice at any time there are 2 people around with an interest.
