Jaguar supports 2014 Targa High Country
Starting November 7, the Targa High Country takes on one of the most challenging and exciting roads in the country around Victoria's Mount Buller, along with the High Country Region from Mansfield to Eildon and out to Euroa for the first time.
The 2014 event will see Ben Newman and Crichton Lewis competing in an F-Type R coupe in the newly introduced Sports Trophy class, representing Neil Bucky Jaguar. Jaguar owners Christopher Waldock and Christine Kirby will also be in an F-Type R coupe, competing for the Time Speed & Distance (TSD) trophy.
In the support field, another F-Type R coupe will perform '0A' duties, driven by current front-running Targa competitor, Matt Close. Jaguar Australia have former Australian Rally Champion, Ed Ordynski at the steering wheel of a Jaguar XF 3lt Diesel to perform '999' support duties, while Ben Wooster, another former Targa competitor, will drive a second Jaguar XF 3lt Diesel in his role as 'OB' support.
Jaguar Australia Product Engineer and former Targa Rally Navigator, Marc Gammage, will support the vehicle line up.
Jaguar Australia sees supporting Targa events as a particularly appropriate alignment with their brand, and look forward to continuing to support Targa High Country and Targa Tasmania in the future.
