Full Course is the most common config (3.17 miles). Grand Course is the longest (4.2) and the one used by Car and Driver for their lightning lap. Grand Course isn't an often available configuration at the more affordable HPDEs.

The 2 shorter courses (Patriot and...not sure the other name) I don't bother with (I prefer longer tracks) so I don't know how often they're offered.

I'm also pursuing (if a price can be agreed upon) a very clean 1993 EG Civic hatchback with a JDM B18C swap, incl LSD. That would be a fun little car

(would prob sell GTI if I bought that)

I would love to own one of those again if I can find a clean one at a reasonable price. The value of those things are skyrocketing.

Wow yeah this took a turn lol. I can't imagine two more different cars than a EG Civic hatch and a C63 AMG.

That being said I say go for it, I just can't imagine the C63's are very fun after you get used to the power.
