Is anyone as quick as Rapid Ricky?

Ahead of day two of the World Darts Championship, the Sky Sports Darts experts have a go at emulating the quickfire Ricky Evans.

Rapid Ricky caused a sensation on Thursday's opening night when he fired in a maximum 180 in a barely believable 2.16 seconds during his match against Michael Smith.

The speed of Evans was the talk of social media, despite Evans going on to lose the first round match 3-2 against Bully Boy Smith.

And ahead of Friday's second next of tungsten action, we put the Sky Sports experts to the test with a stopwatch and the task of hitting a maximum.

Hit play on the video at the top of the page as John Part, Wayne Mardle, Rod Harrington and Keith Deller try their luck with one man managing to go faster than Evans but could he hit a 180 to go with the speed???

You can see all the action from day two from the Alexandra Palace from 7pm on Sky Sports Darts HD. Don't forget, you can send us your comments and predictions throughout this year's tournament by tweeting us @SkySportsDarts ... #LoveTheDarts
