Corner Brook team fulfilling childhood dream to race Targa.

For Devon Knight from Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador, the Targa bug bit him early. He’s wanted to race Targa ever since he was a kid. From a young age he watched Targa on the Speed Channel and dreamed of competing.

“I got to watch the stages around Gander one year when I was in middle school and absolutely loved it,” says Devon.

After high school he moved to the Toronto area where he took driver training and spent most weekends taking part in track days on various road courses around southern Ontario. He also started competing in autocross events there and once he returned to the west coast of Newfoundland, he helped start autocross there with the Western Speedpark group.

Co-driver Logan King-Gaudon is from Black Duck Siding near Stephenville. Both work at Long Range Outdoors in Corner Brook. Logan has been racing autocross since it started on the west coast and has always ridden hard on snowmobiles and dirt bikes. He is a mechanic which could come in handy during Targa.

“The car we will be racing is my 2015 Mustang GT. Overall the car is fairly stock but has some suspension work such as sway bars, poly bushings, subframe bracing, and more from when I used the car on road courses. The thousands of kilometres I have put on it in autocross and road courses definitely help for entering Targa,” says Devon.
