On a typical race day in Dover you'll see a number of different strategies play out. The race can be won by charging hard all day, by laying back and saving your tires for the end, or even by playing the fuel mileage game. You just never know what Dover will bring.
As for attending in person, sightlines are good from anywhere in the stands. The upper-deck stands in the turns are a bit too far away for my taste. I prefer the top row of the original stands.
Traffic isn't too bad with route 1 nearby and a number of alternate routes available. Dover even offers a park-and-ride option that can really get you on the road quickly.
