CentOS - Nov 2011 - CentOS6 yum-plugin-fastestmirror spectacular failure

I'm trying to update from the cr repo, but yum-plugin-fastestmirror gets
 it totally wrong; it selects a mirror in .hk that deliveres bytes per second,
 and as far as I can tell, most or all of the timedhosts.txt entries are
 in the Middle or Far East. What's going on? Nobody mirroring cr in other
 parts of the world?

Dunno but in the release notes:

"- Baseurl for the CR repo is set to only use centos.org internal
machines, this is to reduce the amount of time we need to spend in
seeding and then managing external mirrors."

Doesn't that mean that it is not mirrored?
