As Lonnie said the AMR is a solid well rounded shell but if you feel like experimenting I'd suggest back to back runs with one of the CRC and a Speed8 HD shells. By running the three shells back to back you would get a good feel for the way each handles. Just an observation, if possible you might want to consider 17.5 vs 13.5, it might be easier to lay down better lap times on your small med grip track with the 17.5.
13.5 was chosen to conform to what other tracks in the area are running. I agree 17.5 would be easier to learn with, but I think that ship has sailed. To give you an idea about the size of the track, 17.5 blinky TC is turning 8.0-9.0 laps. The track is on the small size but they keep the layouts fairly flowing and open.
