I have tickets to the little 500 and I cannot find answers to these questions.
I have a small camper is there overnight parking?
What time will it be over?
Should I take ear plugs?
I have noise canceling headphones, do they broadcast their PA on a radio channel?
May I take a cooler?

Yes. Many campers in the parking lot. Usually over around 11pm. I would recommend ear plugs. Years past they have had it on the local radio station. But not 100% sure they will this year. No coolers aloud. Not enough room to put them any where. Hope this helps

My reco is to sit in Turn 4 in the big grandstand. Great view of the track.

This years field could be the strongest in years with Coons Jr, Darland, Tyler, Elliott, Fillip, Gerster, Kite, Helberg, Decaire, Pierce, Litt. There are still another 15 or so entires to come in yet.

Yeah, I cannot agree with this more. "Night Before the 500"? Meh. Not after you see the Little 500. Well worth the time, drive and getting out past traffic. . . . .

Unfortunately, the last thing I heard was that DeCaire did not have a ride for the Little 500. Sure hope he finds one. Always up front, and sure is a treat to watch

I got a reply to the same questions from Rick Dawson, President Anderson Speedway
"We have a big campground and there is no charge. There are, however, no hook ups.
I highly recommend headphones and the track announcer is broadcast on FM 90.5.
Campers start arriving the week prior to the race and continue coming in all week."
I Thank everyone for your comments This is my first time and I am excided.
