Yeah, the 201 works well: I also drive one and with some work on the setup it goes really well.
However, I've found that every mid-motor I gave a test drive just feels like you need to 'work it' less to get it around the track quickly - at least when the grip's there, on low bite I've yet to find out how all that works out
What the 201 (I think thanks to rear motor) does really well is throw the rear end out on tight tracks when you mount the rear shocks to the outside on the shock tower, it makes it so nice to corner around tight corners

And I've found it to be extremely quick on wet astroturf!
