You can but you will only get credit for attending one race that night. We all know what you are up to. Double dipping to increase your race total.

If you've never been then go, I promise you'll start looking forward to NEXT years Little 500 the day after it's over......

AGREED!!!!! You can really feel the excitement as they go for the green!
Attended my first Little 500 last year and it was amazing. A fantastic duel between Gordon and Steele with the winning pass made just 27 or so laps from the finish...unbelievable. I don't see us going anywhere but Anderson in the future on the night before the big race...especially considering our fantastic upgrade in seats this year! But I've been to several "Night Before the 500's," and one "Little 500"...and I would totally recommend the Little. It is something you won't regret whether the race is good or not.
Thanks for all of the input, while I realize I need to see the Little 500 in the near future, I am going to ORP this Saturday. The facility was a big factor in my decision, and I hope that Sun Valley replaces their bleachers in the near future before someone gets hurt!!
