Exactly, SVG and Courtney also took a long time to get up to speed. Now they are series champions!

As Waters shows, the main game is the place to race. The Super2 series is insufficient because they don't do enough kms to develop skills at a sufficient race.

One season in main game, is far more valuable than three seasons of Super2. Just look at the relative progression of Waters or Winterbottom who did Super2, and were still mediocre until they racked up another season and a half of main game. Which basically matches the drivers like Whincup or van Gisbergen who debutted directly into the main game, and took a season and a half to stop being mediocre. So no real benefit of Super2 seems to be evident.
