AC GPK Indianapolis (2024 update)

AC GPK Indianapolis
(2024 update) version 3.0

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is the largest sports venue in the world and the home of the Indianapolis 500. Now we have made it smaller into the size of an outdoor karting track, suitable for Formula Student cars. There are two layouts, the "brickyard" oval and the road-coarse in the infield.

2024 Update version 3.0
All GPK tracks for the FSGP 2024 season will get an update (and will go to version 3.0). This year we introduce pit stops in every FSGP race. So we took a close look at every pit exit and in case it was not safe enough we changed it into a safer pit exit.
All trees and lights have an update for better looking and better FPS.
And we updated the billboards.
This GPK Indianpolis is not part of the FSGP 2024 series, but will be used for the Formula Student Indy 50 race. I had allready a save pit entry and exit, but all the other 2024 updates are also done for this track.
Special thanks to @Ofitus21 and @zuno toto for doing all the hard work for these 2024 updates.

Video and images are from version 1.0

Grand Prix Karting
Grand Prix Karting tracks are F1 tracks and iconic tracks with the layout of the original track but the size, look and feel of real world karttracks. No big runoff areas, but modern wide kerbs, pit not on the infield but on the outside of the track, and a pitbuilding which is also a grandstand. These tracks are not a resized conversion of existing tracks but scratch build. Not laser scanned (because they are fiction) but handmade, which was a bit of a challenge with some tracks with a lot of elevation in the track and the terrain surrounding the track.

The Grand Prix Karting Indianapolis is a bit different from other Grand Prix Karting tracks. The others are somewhat closer to a regular outdoor karting track and a bit less to the original circuits, but the Indianapolistrack is much closer to the original track.
