Stillen Nissan GT-R Doing Well After First Day of Racing at Targa

Stillen GT-R

Steve Millen is doing well after the first day of the Targa Newfoundland rally. The car completed all the stages without any penalities and is tied for 1st place with a group of cars. Targa Newfoundland scoring system is based on a set time that competitors have to finish a stage. If they are slower than the set time then they get that time as their score,ie 2 seconds late, then they now are +2. The average speed limit on the stages is 135 kph.
The good news, Steve and Mike have said that they are well under the goal time for each stage so far. [EDIT: Confirmed from Targa Newfoundland Results - Tied for 1st with other competitors running a perfect day with no time penalties: Targa Newfoundland Results] This is a good sign for the week and we’re hoping they keep up the great work!

However they did find a small hole in a CV boot on the car. The spare part they had was not the correct part, so they effected a temporary repair that they hope holds up. Maybe someone in Canada can FedEx them a new axle or two. stillen_gtr_newfoundland_day1_racing3 Source : Twitpic – Marcurbano
