Your health is more important than any addon-track, even the very longest. I'll wait patiently.

Get well again,

Gordon

Here´s a view of Targa in Google Earth. The attached zip file is a kmz file which should open automatically in GE if you unzip it first. I tried to follow the correct route in Google Earth but I´m not sure if I got it right especially in Collesano and Campofelice. Ginetto or someone else will hopefully correct me if there are mistakes.  

EDIT: corrected the route at Collesano and Campofelice and added the distances in km:s.

I did the changes HERE using  Map My Walk, I didn't know you cannot save as kmz file well you can easily see the altitude of the race and it might be a usefull site to somebody who didn't know it before.
Changes made at Campofelice and Collesano

Thanks!! I love to have tracks for Google Earth. And the longer, the better

Looking forward to drive the Targa!

[Kanzo]

Thanks, Ginetto and Keith. I´ve edited the kmz file in my post and corrected the route as suggested. I also added the kilometres. Strange - I tried to follow the route in GE very accurately and still got a total distance of 71.4 km. I thought the circuit was 72 km. What is the exact length of the 1963 circuit?

600 meters on 72 kilometer are easy to achieve or to loose, consider you measure a turn in the center of the road or at the inside limit, you can easily have 1 meter of difference; multiply this by the number of turns that targa has, which is 600 and you get your measure right
