Umbrella and sun block for the weekend. If you get to Anderson early enough for practice go up in turn two stands and sit in shade for a bit. You'll want to get a couple pops or whatever and used the restrooms about 20 minutes prior to start of little 500. Lets just say, once the race starts, that's where you'll be for three hours..

The little 500 will start with about 7-8 cars that break away and start racing thru the back of the pack in a few laps, keep track of them and look back from time to time for drivers you're interested in. see if they can keep from being lapped.

Pit stops, You have to take two. One before lap 250 and one after. it's insane.

You'll probably want to have race monitor or whatever they're using. The only thing there is a scoreboard that shows the top five and lap number. But third place could be a lap down and forth and fifth two or three laps down. near the end of the race.

It thins out about lap 350 instead of 33 out there. there might be 15-20 So a good pit stratagy by third place and they may fly thru the field. unlap themselves or something.

Have fun.
