Are those pictures from the official www.targatasmania.com.au site?

They are some of the best driving roads I've ever driven on! Wish I was there

He's quite serious about driving the Galardo; he's got a roll cage build in! (Last pic.)

edit: Just looked at the site and this is not a posing rally. This is serious rally driving and a bit of touring combined it seems.

Didn't he wreck another Gallardo last year? I think Targa Tasmania is an unlucky place to Lambos...

targa tasmania claims victims in more spectacular ways, they're lucky to get away with engine fire.
