I worked it and agree, this is a Mickey Mouse track not worthy of professional racing. Flat as a board, track surface had a drop of 2" or so to the "runoff" area that was CA desert dust. No gravel catch areas that I saw. Just a lot of silly money in a very out of the way place. Armco stacked three high with very few safety measures. And not to mention that my station was, in my view, dangerous given the trajectory that cars would take if they were to drop a wheel, which thankfully did not happen. I am not sure who passed this track as safe for professionals. Certainly wasn't the FIA. From what I hear, this date was set because of a hole in the schedule before Long Beach and the date for next year was give to a TX race. I will not go back to work it if asked.
Though I did get to listen to come yahoo hammer a GT3RS around the track after Sunday morning practice. Sort of seemed like showing off.
