I will definitely take lots pictures.
Laura hit the nail on the head...sunscreen, very comfortable clothes and shoes. I believe your race starts around 5:00, so you'll have sun from the time you get there (I'm assuming a few hours early) until 7:30ish. I've found that the area where all of the merchandise trailers are is like a tanning booth. Make sure you put on sunscreen!
I always layer up on clothes when I go. It could be 85F at the start of the race, but once the sun goes down, it gets chilly.
Also, be prepared to be sitting in the car for a while after the race. It takes a long time for 170,000 people to exit when they are all leaving at the same time! Most people fire up the grill and tailgate for a few hours after the race.
Boogity, boogity, boogity, Let's Go Racin' Boys!
