Been there, done that. Great facility. Track is long, I think like 3.5 miles if doing full circuit (most desirable), some challenging corners and a very long, high speed back straight with a slight kink. I really enjoyed it. I am signed up for a couple days there this year with SCDA, and am considering the event you plan to attend.
Personally I think it is much more driver friendly and less intimidating than Watkins Glen with all that blue guardrail in your face in key corners.
Look at pics here http://www.drivemmc.com/ the long straight is on the right. The one place drivers that who aren't paying attention get in trouble is the kink on the left side that is off camber. The day I was there someone rolled at that kink, they went over that in the drivers meeting if you were awake... Also had a couple people spin or go off in the hairpin following that corner (mid-left of photo) but it shouldn't be a problem if you treat as a slow speed corner. Like most tracks, helps if you take an instructor familiar with the track with you the first session - there are a lot of turns so it takes pretty much a full session or more to get the track picture in memory.
From this link http://www.monticellomotorclub.com/ go "The Track" then "TrackMap" shows map rotated 90 degrees clockwise from the photo in 1st link. They run the track clockwise on the outer portions in the full track configuration.
Good luck! I think you will like it!
