Hi Stephen

You can get the answers to most of your questions here:

The quick answer is that there is mostly qualifying/practice on Friday
and Saturday and several races on Sunday.  Tickets are cheap. (little
Canadian dollars) You really should stick around for the Canada GT
Challenge race which is right after the ALMS race.  There are pretty
much no preparation rules so some weird and wonderful cars are usually
on the track. 

There is also a special Audi Quattro Corral with all kinds of perks
for Audi owners including private tent, lunch, open bar, a lap of the
track, etc.  Of course this all costs a bit more, $175CAD to be exact.
