This is the tutorial with eight different parts. It is a must to do them. Listen carefully to the instructions, as you have to remember everything. In fact, it's so important, it's a good thing to do the tutorial two times.

Basic car control[edit]

Do one lap as fast as you can. The trick is to speed up right at the beginning for a maximum top speed as soon as possible. Don't worry about the pace car, it will peel off when you pass it.

Advanced car control[edit]

Do three laps as fast as you can. Raise you weight jacker to the top, set your engine to 7 and fly!

Maximizing performance[edit]

Right when you start, break, turn back and enter the pit by the wrong side. It doesn't matter, you'll get in the pit faster that way. Tune your car by selecting the "Go to garage" and use the setting for the Indianapolis track in the section "IndyCar Series" with just a few modifications: raise the pressure of your tires by only 1 for each of the four and lower the front wing 1, so that it shows 0. Also, set your gear five to 231 and your gear six to 242. Then reduce your fuel to something about 8 and race a few laps to get your tires red. Then set your engine to 7 and set your weight jacker to the maximum (+). Make sure to always stay in gear six and never let go of the acceleration. With these settings, you'll be able to do 235.36 mph average!

Qualifications[edit]

When you start, head for the pit, then set your fuel to 4 and raise your front wing to the maximum. On the race, set your engine to 7 and max your weight jacker. Go to gear dive at 230 mph and to gear six at 237 mph when racing. With a little practice, you'll get the gold that way.

Racing techniques[edit]

Race and overtake at least one car. When you start, you'll be doing about 240 mph, just keep this speed and pass between the two first cars, so just at the start you can overtake 2 cars.

The Pits[edit]

Head to the pit and get back in the race while keeping your position.

The caution period[edit]

Right when you start you'll be the witness of a car oversteering and crashing. Just follow the next car with the two green arrows on top of it and don't overtake it. After about two laps, the green arrows will go away and it's now time to race again. Overtake at least one car for the last four laps.

The IndyCar Series[edit]

You must finish at least in third position. It will take a lot of tries to get it right. To finish first, hit the acceleration as soon as you can and never take it off, then duplicate exactly the path each of the cars is taking.
