Did you get allocated one?

From what I gather only 16 came to Aus, 11 to race teams and 5 to lucky road punters.

If you did are you going stock, or having the add on race pack?

The dealer has assured me that I have one and has taken a deposit. I don’t think I will go for the race pack and the dealer has not asked the question. :?
But I am looking for a full Akrapovic Ti system 8)

Sounds like a reason for a run in ride. I could be up for one 8)
