Inspired by the original Targa Florio, and contemporary tarmac rallies, Mike John dreamt of organising a Targa-style event in New Zealand. The obstacles that had to be surmounted were many but Mike and a loyal band of enthusiasts brought that dream to reality with the inaugural Targa New Zealand in 1995. The event was an instant success, hailed by the specialist motoring press as "the stuff that legends are made of", and, overnight, Targa NZ set new standards for all future motorsport events.
The Targa travelling circus brought together an incredibly diverse collection of cars and drivers. From vintage sports cars, to Italian exotics, to current, state-of-the-art 4WD rally machines. Together they crossed the North Island, with over 2,000 kilometres of touring stages, backed up by 38 Special Stages run over closed public roads; gathering enthusiasts and new friends along the way. This special esprit de corps became the key note of Targa NZ '95, inspiring camaraderie amongst the competitors even though they were all battling each other for a highly prized Targa trophy.
Now run by Vicky and Peter Martin and a loyal band of staff and volunteers Targa New Zealand continues to be a world leading event and gets better year by year.
