This section of the Targa New Zealand website is dedicated to our entrant's loyal fans! From now on you can visit this Spectators page to ensure you are always up to date with upcoming event information.
Spectators should alwaysremain standing in a safe location and follow instructions of the Block Marshals. This could be on a bank, behind a tree, etc. Do not sit on the ground in areas on the same level as the road - you should only sit on embankments or high ground well above the road. Always make sure you are in a safe position that allows you to response quickly to potentional danger, such as a car out of control.
In case of an accident, no matter how bad it may look, you must NEVER leave your position and run to the scene of the incident! The race is still going and competing cars are still coming with high speed. We have got the right people on the stage who will deal with the problem. Please follow the instructions of the Block Marshals.
