Sally Port is easy with that robot and a skilled driver - I saw 11 execute a similar (in terms of profile) design and consistently get the Sally Port without assistance at MAR Mt. Olive. Basically what happens is you go backwards through it, spin around 180 degrees fast enough to lose contact, and then go back though. Similar for the drawbridge, though I'm not certain how that robot will keep it down - some have arms that extend out in front that retract for a fraction of a second and then come back down to hold it down.
