The 2011 Relentless International North West 200 was the 72nd running of the road racing event and took place on Saturday 21 May 2011 at the circuit, known as "The Triangle", based around the towns of Portstewart, Coleraine and Portrush, in Northern Ireland. As with 2010, the event featured daytime practice on the Thursday rather than during the evening. Traditionally only the main NW200 race has been run over six laps, however in 2011 all five events were to be six lap races. For the first time since 1989 there was no scheduled 125 cc event. [1]

There were significant delays due to a hoax bomb alert and then an extensive oil spill on the track together with bad weather caused racing to be cancelled after the completion of only one race. [2]
