After considerable study by our technical group and consultation with competitors, Targa Newfoundland has decided that it will delay implementation of the proposed changes to the regulations governing the tires. The tire regulations for the 2009 event will remain unchanged and be as set out in the current 2005 - 2009 Regulations. We have done this out of respect for competitors’ existing sponsorship arrangements, the challenge of availability in certain tire sizes and other considerations.
The proposed change requiring tires to display a UTQG (Universal Tire Quality Grading) rating of 200 or greater will be implemented with the 2010-2014 rules which will come into effect at the end of the 2009 event.
The foregoing being decided, Targa remains determined to restrict the escalation of speeds. In Targa Newfoundland 2009, we will strictly enforce a 135 km/h average and 200 km/h maximum stage speed with both fines and penalties. We thank the technical group and the competitors for their input and patience during this important process, and look forward to seeing you in September.
