Default Did the north course which is .5 miles longer.

It was fun, decent turns. If you are rather experienced, it may be a little short for you. But it was my first track event, and it was pouring rain, and still had a blast.
Are you considering doing the EMRA event there?
There probably will be a few AW'ers there.

North only, but I'll be on the South course in May. I might do the PDA events that weekend.

Default i'm still contemplating it. that's the course the super-bikes usually use...

yes, it's shorter than North and more narrow. i'm guessing top speeds of around 80-90 mph at the end of the back straight.

it looks like it's tough on brakes...gonna' have to do SS lines, track pads and Motul 600 before race day.

i might try it while signing up for one other course to get the multi-course discount.
