The track is in a very beautiful part of NW CT. It's small, and it is possible to walk the entire infield numerous times during the race. There are no grandstands, so if you intend to sit during the race I would recommend bringing a comfortable beach chair. If you would like to walk the track, the most crowded part tends to be around the new uphill chicane by the RV/Campers. The crowds there can be 3-4 deep. A very neat place to watch the cars is on the inside of the downhill. There aren't many people there at all and it's quite a rush seeing the P cars fly down the hill flatout through the corner at 130 mph +. The only access to the outside of the track is along the end of the front straight (walkover bridge) and the new viewing areas on the exit of West Bend and the Downhill (another walkover bridge)
Where will you be driving in from?
How many days do you plan to be there?
Let me know if you have any other questions
