Anyone got any recommendations for car based activities in and around Hobart? Maybe even the rest of Tassie...

Thanks!

Visit Pooley Automobiles, the Porsche/Alfa/Subaru dealer John Pooley was/is a great rally/racing driver and very hospitable.

John Pooley hasn't owned a dealership for years and there is no Alfa dealer in Hobart.

Thank you for the information regarding John Pooley, do you know him? Please pass him my regards. He kindly sponsored my car on the Targa in 2004.

Targa is an event definitely worth attending.

In the lead up to the Targa there is also the Longford Revival, I stumbled upon it a few years ago, thread here:
