It was somewhat odd seeing Bairdo on two wheels
It was definitely this one - I've been lucky enough to be there and drive on it a few times.

Most definitely not a racetrack - the article linked above has a number of things wrong - "F1 Standard" for example. It's very much built to road rather than racetrack standards in terms of width, corner layout, runoff etc.

Very enjoyable to drive on - like your favourite back road that you can hit again & again with no threat of blue/red lights around the next corner.
