The 'Night Before the 500' is now 'The Day Before the 500'. I don't know if they are going to start as early this year, but last year I was able to watch every race at IRP, head out, get lost, stop at O'Charley's, stop for gas and personal needs, pinch a tint, hang out by the tent and drink water for 20 minutes, and get my tickets and still had about 40 minutes time to walk around and keep my set warm before they fired up at the Little 500.

I hope IRP doesn't push the start times back every much as I'd love to be able to do this again.
