Well, usually that's what Divisionals are for. If you don't have access to
one ahead of time, just ask to be shown the ropes. The major differences
are all administrivia: assigned grid positions, impound, more formality
about proper numbers/stickers. The event competition is that of a normal
two-day event.

Sure. It's not a "you really need to try this once" thing like a Pro, but
it's definitely good experience, and you'll know how national events are run
for the future.
