The Merritt rocks. Two lanes, curvy and hilly, and everyone speeds. It's like "Gran Turismo".
CT, though... not much there that I can think of. It's mainly something I pass through on my way to NY/NJ. CT is sort of the redheaded stepchild; it's not really considered part of New England by ME, VT, NH, and RI (even though it is), and not really considered part of the Tri-State area by NY/NJ (even though it is). Half of them are Patriots fans and half are Giants/Jets fans; half are Red Sox fans and half are Yankees fans. The WWE is headquartered there, and Mark Twain liked Hartford; that's about all I can really say about it.
