Default Castrol SRF Brake Fluid

I'm draining out my current stock brake fluid on my C5, anticipating some track time in a couple weeks. I plan to buy the Castroll SRF brake fluid, despite the price, but am unsure of how many liter containers it will take to completely flush and replace the fluid. Any suggestions for amount to purchase? $60/liter seems to be the cheapest I've found.

I think you can almost get it done with a liter. 1.5 Liters should definately do it.

I used 3 Motul 600's which was more than enough and they are 1/2 liters I believe.
