Not Erudite, just er
Bot at the former Alameda Naval Air Station, but you knew that.

The track Rossi is on is Sportland SUGO in Japan - I think it's Sugo, but I'm sure it's not Thunderhill.

This was not intended to be a trap or a joke. The video is obviously not THill, but the Bay area company that is working on this Robot with Rossi involvement coordinated a test day right after COTA, and rented THill West for 2 days. I was told by a member of this team that he was there running laps on a R1. I did not personally witness the event, but I am pretty sure it actually happened. I will try and get some hard evidence.

I don't know lap times. He was there with some other Yamaha riders, and apparently was about 5 seconds faster than them. I will see if I can find out who the other riders were.
