Road & Track Partners With Stillen for the 2009 Targa Newfoundland Rally Race

Sweepstakes Sponsored by Stillen Grand Prize Winner Receives All-Expense Paid Trip to the Targa

Leading car magazine and auto site Road & Track (Hachette Filipacchi Media U.S.) has partnered with aftermarket performance specialist Stillen for the 2009 Targa Newfoundland, a 6-day, 2200-kilometer (1367 miles) 40-plus-stage rally that will take place in Newfoundland September 12-19th. Championship-winning racer Steve Millen, president of Stillen, will handle driving duties while Road & Track feature editor Mike Monticello will serve as navigator.

Matt DeLorenzo, Road & Track's editor-in-chief says, "The Targa Newfoundland is a great event that showcases a beautiful yet unheralded part of North America. Road & Track is privileged to be a part of an international competition that captures the imagination of the world."

"I'm honored to tackle the navigational duties of the Targa Newfoundland alongside a driver of Steve Millen's caliber -- it's going to be a great adventure!" said Monticello.

Road & Track has been following the building of the racecar -- a heavily modified Nissan GT-R -- and has 10 videos online (www.roadandtrack.com/stillen) taking site visitors behind the scenes to witness everything that Stillen's engineers have done to build this very special car and make it race-ready. Additionally, Road & Track will feature daily reports and vivid in-car action -- straight from the streets of the Targa.

"It is probably every car enthusiast's dream to drive closed public roads as fast as you can in your favorite car. And the first time I drove the Nissan GT-R, I knew it was perfect for a Targa rally," said Steven Millen. "By having Road & Track chronicle the build, ride along with us and video the event with in-car cameras, enthusiasts will practically feel like they are in the car with us! We invite you to ride with us at Targa Newfoundland!"

Watch the series of videos covering the Stillen GT-R's trick body pieces, rollcage installation, exhaust tuning, dyno runs, performance testing and more. And follow along as Road & Track's Monticello receives training in all the nuances of navigating.
