Important Notice to all of our 2009 competitors

Targa Newfoundland is pleased to announce that the 2009 course is now set. It will be composed of 2 Prologue stages, 1 Demonstration Stage and 42 competitive stages. This is the greatest number of stages we have ever run. Competitors will be pleased to know that the course has a number of new stages as well as substantial modifications to some existing stages.
While the overall route is generally similar to TN 2008 there will be one major exception. It was decided by Targa to move the traditional Clarenville overnight on Wednesday to Marystown. This decision was a result of Clarenville council not being able to confirm their desire to host a stage in the community by the time the course was set. This will mean that the free transit to Marystown will begin immediately after the Goosebery Cove stage on Wednesday evening. While this will get the cars into Marystown later in the evening than usual competitors will not have to face the long morning transit which they formally did. Competitors who made their bookings through Maxxim Vacations have had their accommodations adjusted to take care of this change but those who booked through other agencies or by themselves should make arrangements to be in Marystown on both the Wednesday and Thursday evenings. We hope this will not be too much of an inconvenience.

FROM MAXXIM VACATIONS:"Participants who have already secured accommodations with Maxxim Vacations will automatically be booked for the additional night in Marystown, and the night in Clarenville cancelled. Maxxim Vacations will be sending updated itineraries reflecting the change by the end of next week."

See you in September"
