I've searched several threads, but I cannot find which course or configuration the 1LE ran at VIR. Was it the 4.1 mile Grand West Course, which is what Car & Driver uses for its annual Lightning Lap event (which is actually the least used configuration there) or was it the 3.27 Full Course? The Boss 302's time of 3:02 was on the 4.1 mile course, so I'd really like to know which course the sub 3 minute 1LE run was made on. If it was the full course, a sub 3 run is not that impressive as many cars commonly run mid-to-low 2's on the Full Course.

The way it's being talked up, I sure hope it is the Grand West and not the Full configuration.
