Nice!
We actually met Neil Bates at the Sydney stage of the ARC a couple of years ago.. He was putting the RS200 through it's paces around the street circuit down at King St Wharf.. Man that thing was an absolute animal - Not opposed to a wee bit of sideways action either!

It did come unstuck a few times on the hairpins tho

I love wakefield. The "fish hook" is a tricky corner indeed.

Did you see Simon Evans do any laps in the RS200?? They were saying he was giving it heaps and was sideways most of the time?
The RS200 is a tough looking machine
You didn't happen to hand time any of their flying laps did you?? Obviously they would not have been laps as quick as they could possibly do but it would be cool to know what they do in comparison to some of us on that track.
Cheers.
