    Apparently the Flyin' Miata team made a documentary film of their experience on the Targa. Here's the blurb (preview video below).

    Been a huge fan of this Targa. Would love to race it myself!
    But I'm having a hard time finding resources around costs and planning.

    I met a couple of Mini racers that run their classic in the Targa at the Mid Ohio vintage race. They encourage all of us to come up and either race or watch.
