The briefing

About this game

International Speedway is a motorcycle speedway racing game focused on progressing through increasingly difficult leagues. After entering a name, country, and continent, the player begins in a local championship and must win each league to advance toward the world championship.

Races take place on oval tracks and are viewed from behind the rider, with a bird's-eye display showing the positions of all competitors. The interface also includes lap information, lap times, a speedometer, and images of the rider's hand and helmet.

Controls are straightforward: the fire button accelerates, left and right steer, and there is no brake. A special boost can be activated once per race by pushing the joystick forward.
