Indianapolis Motor Speedway

Conquer the Grand Prix Circuit and The Brickyard Speedway in Forza Horizon 3! Get insider tips for navigating the banked turns and tricky S-curves of Indy.

Alright, let's talk about the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Forza Horizon 3. It's a legendary track, and we've got two awesome layouts to tackle: the Grand Prix Circuit and the classic Brickyard Speedway. Let's break 'em down so you can dominate.

Grand Prix Circuit

This one's a bit of a hybrid, mixing parts of the famous oval with the infield road course. It's about 2.60 miles long and features a long straightaway that'll let you really open up the throttle, plus some technical S-turns and a sharp U-turn that'll test your braking. You'll also hit some banked turns on the oval section.

Strategy:

• Start by following that medium-length straightaway. You'll soon hit an S-turn on your right. Ease off the gas a bit going into it, then you can pick up speed through the next couple of turns.
• Be ready for a full U-turn that demands some serious slowing down. After that, take the next turn fairly quickly before you hit another straightaway.
• Keep an eye out for a three-tier S-turn – you'll need to slow down a touch here too.
• After that, there's a short straight with two easy curves, and then you'll be heading into the home stretch with a high-speed turn leading to the finish line. Nail this last turn, and you'll cross the line first!

The Brickyard Speedway

This is the pure, iconic oval. It's also 2.60 miles long, and it's almost entirely flat except for those famous banked turns. You'll recognize it instantly with its four long straightaways, making it look like a rectangle with rounded corners. You might even see some of the original track's bricks exposed!

Strategy:

• You'll start on a straightaway, then immediately hit a banked left turn.
• After that, it's another straight, followed by another banked left turn.
• The key here is to slightly slow down for the banked turns and then absolutely floor it on the straightaways. It's all about maximizing your speed on the straights and carrying just enough momentum through the turns.

Pro Tip: Both of these tracks are fantastic for practicing your high-speed cornering and braking. Don't be afraid to experiment with different racing lines to find what works best for your car and driving style!
