Actually that's turn 5, about midway through. They were doing the practice starts at the end of turn 4/beginning of 5.

I had to look at the map again. I thought they considered (what apparently is turn 4) two seperate corners. I was calling that 4 and 5 all weekend.

When we came in Saturday morning during GP practice, we went straight to the mound right behind 5. I looked at the corner workers and turned to my two friends and told them that you were corner working somewhere around the track, but I didnt know where. Doh.

I hide in plain sight.

For the record, I was not the guy that looked liked Santa Claus.

I had a blast. Santa asked me what racing stuff I had done, and decided I should be turn Capt. He was supposed to be turn Capt., but didn't have any experience with road racing, so he hands me the radio, and says "Here, you're in charge."

Turn 5 is the fastest bend on the circuit, and Stoner (pigs be upon him) was full-tilt bozo through my station. Holy Fuck. I kinda knew from the first practice that no one would be able to match that pace. To see that kind of speed from eight feet away, was damn near orgasmic, (my apologies to the track suit cleaning folks).

Yeah stoner was flat out ridiculous out there. As soon as Spies went retarded on the start, I knew no one around had a chance to keep up.
