Indianapolis Motor Speedway

Learn the best strategies for the Grand Prix Circuit and The Brickyard Speedway at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Forza Horizon 2. Dominate these iconic tracks!

Alright, so you've stumbled upon the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Forza Horizon 2, huh? It's a pretty iconic spot, and it's got two main layouts you'll be tackling: the Grand Prix Circuit and The Brickyard Speedway. Let's break 'em down so you can nail them every time.

Grand Prix Circuit

This one's a bit of a mix, using parts of the oval but also diving into the infield. It's about 2.60 miles long and has a good blend of straights and technical corners. You'll find a long straightaway right in the middle, plus most of the home stretch and some shorter adjacent straights.

Strategy:

• Start by following that medium-length straightaway until you hit an S-turn on your right. Take it a bit slower going in, then really pick up speed through the next few quick turns.
• You'll then come up on a full U-turn that demands you slow down. After that, take the next turn fairly fast.
• Hit the accelerator on the next straightaway. You'll encounter a mild three-tier S-turn that requires you to ease off the gas a little.
• After that, there's a short straight with two easy curves, leading you into the home stretch. Be ready for a high-speed turn that takes you to the finish line.

The Brickyard Speedway

This is the classic, purely oval-shaped track. It's 2.60 miles long and famous for its banked turns. You'll notice the original track's bricks are exposed in some spots, which is a cool touch. It's basically four long, straightaways forming a rectangle with rounded corners.

Strategy:

• The track kicks off with a straightaway, then you'll take a banked left turn.
• After another straightaway, you'll hit another banked left turn.
• The key here is to slow down just a bit for those turns and then absolutely floor it on the straightaways.

Pro Tip: Keep an eye on your braking points, especially in those banked turns. A little too much speed and you'll find yourself sliding up the wall!
