I have a program that extracts the instructions for tables from the TPA program file. Here are the ones for Indy 500. They might be helpful if you are in a game and can't get to the instructions, or for other reasons.

I usually try to do some very light formatting on these to make them look a little nicer in text format, but I haven't done that yet as I don't want to read all the rules yet :), except for the last two chapters. If/when I format these, I'll edit this post.

I have a goal of finding errors in the TPA instructions (they're rare), and adding useful (or trivial) things that aren't in the instructions. I welcome any such contributions :).

1. Introduction (9 pp)
Indianapolis 500(R) is a high speed table inspired by the greatest
spectacle in auto racing, the Indy 500. This game is built to move fast,
challenging players to battle it out as an Indy 500 driver by completing the
Speedway, clocking Laps, Passing other drivers, and completing Light Up
targets, exclusive to this table, to eventually take their Victory Lap.
Loaded with unique features, this game showcases its shaker motor right on
the playfield in the form of an Indy car going around a track. It also has a
Turbo Lock Unit capable of locking up to four balls to fire back down toward
the player at high speed. These instructions will help you become an expert
at the fastest game around - Indianapolis 500.


2. Skill Shot (14 pp)
You can score points each time a new ball is sent to the Plunger by
completing one of two skill shots. When the ball is plunged, it is sent to
the habitrail feeding the right flipper and the Left Ramp is lit for a Skill

Multiplied, any points from the Dueling Drivers, Caution, or Wrong Turn modes
are added to the Bonus.

That's too long. What's the summary? How do I score big points?

Start turbo boost multiball, catch one ball at the left flipper and shot the combo right ramp - turbo boost with the second ball again and again. Not very much fun but the fastest way for big points...

Thanks Tarek, I thought that must be important, as I managed to rack up 3 billion or so in ten minutes without progressing much into the game. I just kept getting 60 M super jackpots again and again.

I will wait for a more thorough strategy thread and will at some point thoroughly read and try to understand all those rules ...... but with laps and positions and points and souvenirs and combos and changing 'setup' and all those modes and races to read up about, lbh, we all need a shortcut.

Points not working at the moment, who knows what scores 10, 100, and 1000 points?

I will wait for a more thorough strategy thread and will at some point thoroughly read and try to understand all those rules ...... but with laps and positions and points and souvenirs and combos and changing 'setup' and all those modes and races to read up about, lbh, we all need a shortcut.

Points not working at the moment, who knows what scores 10, 100, and 1000 points?

I would guess that 10B will net 1000 points, that feels about right. But I'm not sure and I don't know if you can extract the info from within? Invitro?

Is this HoF points you're talking about? If so, yes, I think I saw the information for that in some file, but I don't remember which one or where they were :(. I'm not too interested in HoF points, is probably the reason. If I happen to see it again, I will make a note of it.

Not the combo is important, I mean the turbo boost jackpot itself. It grows up to 90M. Like the Whirlpool Multiball in White Water it's the fastest way for a 5B+ score in a few minutes.

Got it! Got confused about Turbo Boost and regular MB.

Yes! Before your excellent leaderboard thread for all platforms, HOF points were an indicator on iOS how well you were doing overall. It's capped offcourse at 1000 for a fixed score but it's nevertheless still fun to compete for the HOF leaderboard.
