Players win when the last digits of the car numbers match their square.

Players get one or more squares on a 10×10 grid. Before the Indianapolis 500, each row and column gets a random digit from 0 to 9. After Checkpoint 1, Checkpoint 2, and the Finish, the last digits of the winning car numbers point to one square on the board. That square wins.

Three chances to beat your family, friends, group, team, or coworkers.
