Facility Overview
Situated along the busy Route 7 commercial corridor at 16 Danbury Road, Ventura Motorsports Corp operates as an established automotive service and repair facility in New Milford, Connecticut. The site features an open-air surface parking apron directly serving patrons visiting the business for vehicle maintenance, state inspections, diagnostics, and repairs. Because it is an unobstructed outdoor asphalt surface lot, there are no low overhead clearance restrictions or parking decks to navigate. This makes the property readily accessible to standard sedans, light commercial vans, full-size pickup trucks, and high-clearance SUVs.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
The facility is located in the southern commercial gateway of New Milford, bordered by local retail centers, service hubs, and dining establishments along Route 7 (Danbury Road). Nearby points of interest and retail destinations include:

Ingress and egress are simple under standard traffic conditions, though drivers heading southbound during peak evening commuter hours should exercise patience when making left turns onto Route 7.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Drivers visiting during weekday morning drop-off hours (around 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM) should approach carefully, as tow trucks and delivery vehicles periodically unload parts and vehicles. If you require after-hours vehicle drop-off, verify key drop box procedures directly with the shop in advance. Because this is an active private automotive business facility, spaces are reserved strictly for customers and authorized business visitors; general commuter or long-term third-party parking is not permitted.
