Nev Scott came away from the weekend with the fastest lap at the 2012 Japanese Nationals run by Queensland Time Attack at Queensland Raceway.

Nev pulled out an impressive 55.14 around the Clubman circuit - this was good enough for 1st in the AWD class and 1st outright in the morning.

Unfortunately, Nev could not back up his good morning form in the one lap shootout for the $1000 which went to the Mighty Mouse CRX with a very very impressive lap

The AASA Australian Tarmac Rally Championship Round 1 report from Dave Scott



I hadn't been in my race car for two years and I had really itchy feet, I needed that adrenalin fix of going flat-out on winding country roads. Peter Washington from Mountain Motorsports rang to see if I was going to run the Australian Tarmac Rally Championship this year and I knew that's what I needed, but there was a problem - I had no money! A quick budget showed a season would cost $lots plus some. I put together a proposal with ProCam, a professional television production company, to air the season on TV in four documentaries. I chased up some people who have supported me in the past and added a few new allies. I had a lot of support from Fulcrum Suspensions, PerFOURmance Motorsport, Mountain Motorsports, and ProCam.

Congratulations to WRX Club of Qld member Rodney Blank for successfully completing Targa 2011. Rod is a regular at Targa, but this year achieved his best result with a 23rd outright. Rod proudly flies the Subaru banner with his 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STi C-Spec which runs in the Modern class, with 946 on the doors.

It was a great week for Subaru with 10 out of the top 25 cars being a Subaru.

Queenslander Tony Quinn has claimed his second modern Targa Tasmania title in three years with an emphatic display across five days and 500 kilometres of intense competition around the island state.

The 2009 winner was the dominant force in the event in his Nissan GT-R. He and co-driver, Naomi Tillet, took the lead on Targa stage four on the opening day, and were never headed, crossing the finish line at Hobart’s Wrest Point three minutes and 39 seconds ahead of second placegetter, Dean Herridge, in a Subaru WRX STI. Matthew Sims was third, a further one minute 58 seconds in arrears.
