r u kiddin me?!?
The Targa Florio was an open road endurance automobile race held in the mountains of Sicily near Palermo. Founded in 1906, it was the oldest sports car racing event, part of the World Sportscar Championship between 1955 and 1973. While the first races consisted of a whole tour of the island, the track length in the race's last decades was limited to the 72 kilometres (45 mi) of the Circuito Piccolo delle Madonie, which was lapped 11 times.

Some guys made the 1967 lap for GPL and rFactor PC racing sims.

Hard as hell to drive. Took me 10 laps to get the hang of it. Mostly as it is made of real roads and not some titchy "man made" short lap like the Nurburgring.



567 corners - any of them could rip off your front wheel.
 
I've wanted this for a long time. Possibly since before GT5 came out.

And please, GT, do a 24h event on it. In modern cars.
 
There are two targa floria threads with a ton of likes each. They need to be merged!

This one is for the Piccolo Madonie circuit. The other thread is non-specific (Targa Florio is an event, not a race track), so it's not exactly the same.
