While the 'Ring is open to the public so every yahoo (including me!)
can take a go, they'd have to be mighty careful about letting Baker
shoot for a fast time on it. Just too many blind curves with
little-to-no runoff. But I'm sure he would have jumped at the
chance.

Hopefully I'll get a shot at a few laps there on a biz trip next
week. But I don't expect to compete with my GT4 times, no sir.
